+.+ Okay lets do some math!
so. 2007 - 82 = 1925
Therefore, he was born 1925. (Or thereabouts)
So... 1925 + 17 = 1942.
Sometime during the year 1942, Tom Riddle was in his seventh year.
WAIT! Voldemort wasn't alive in 2007... he died in 1998. Is this some sort of trick? Hmm... let's think for a moment...
I don't think so... if your age is correct.. that should be.
Hmm, I am frightened and insecure.
Such a strange feeling... +.+

+.+ Hmm. Okay, let's name all the possibilities I can think of...
1. The first time Harry obviously did magic was in the reptile house and the Zoo.
2. Slytherins being his enemies represent reptiles (woah, snakes!)
3. Voldie is kinda like a snake sometimes (and its freaking hot)
4. Um.. thats all I believe. If I forgot something, I will be upset...
Rawr. biggrin +.+

+.+ Mmm, I smell a trick question.
Harry's psychological home is Hogwarts. He feels at home there.
Therefor, his address is:
Hogwarts Castle, Gryffindor Common Room.
BUT.
Harry's physical address of the house, being Aunt Petunia's and Uncle Vernon's residence, is:
4 Privet Drive,
Little Whinging (I hope I spelled that right), Surrey

-gaspsinhorror-
You are incorrect!
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, as they are waiting on the steps for the Beauxbaton and Durmstrang students to arrive, McGonagall tells Ron to "straighten his hat".

Garnet17th BruisedNails +.+ Well, I read PS, so it SHOULD be the same, yet, may be different.
*Ahem*
Danger lies before you, while safety lies behind,
Two of us will help you, whichever you would find,
One among us seven will let you move ahead,
Another will transport the drinker back instead,
Two among our number hold only nettle wine,
Three of us are killers, waiting hidden in line,
Choose, unless you wish to stay here forevermore,
To help you in your choice, we give you these clues four:
First, however slyly the poison tries to hide
You will always find some on nettle wine's left side;
Second, different are those who stand at either end,
But if you would move onwards, neither is your friend;
Third, as you see clearly, all are different size,
Neither dwarf nor giant holds death in their insides;
Fourth, the second left and the second on the right
Are twins once you taste them, though different at first sight.
PHEW!
+.+
GUYS:
I hope you all know that cheating is not allowed in this game. That means no looking for references in books and/or the internet. There is absolutely no way you can remember the whole riddle, word per word, including right punctuation and phrasing. I can understand it's possible, but the chances of this is highly unlikely.
I also want to clear this up:
Hard questions containing exact numbers shouldn't be permitted. Like the above, there is no way you can memorize an exact number like 1,012 to 1,056. I know it's fun making hard questions, and it is fun racking our brains to find the answer, but when you ask impossible questions that can only be found via book or net, is not fair for the current Fanatic and is also not acceptable.
-Garnet
Edit: After discussing this with the Headmistress, it has been decided that the title should go to Serenity Silvia Malfoy for her outstanding questions and tenacity.My apologizes, hee hee... I'm an actor, and so it's easy for me to memorize lines and such... I do actually have that whole thing memorized, and considering the questions she'd already been able to answer, I decided to really test her. My next question is how old is Hagrid at the end of the seventh book?
