Hi all!

Well, I'm sure the geeks of us all know that in a room with 30 people,
there's a fairly large chance of having two people with the same
birthday. (I can explain to the non-geeks if you really want... not now
though.)

Since we are well over 1000 people (1), there have to be tons of
overlaps on birthdays. So here's my question and challange:

Does *everyone* on lugnet have someone else born on their birthday? I
predict that yes, everyone can find someone with a matching birthday.
'Course this is hard to prove, and I bet not everyone will participate
in this thread, but it's worth a shot. I'll try to keep records of
this.

So if you wanna see if I'm right or if you wanna prove me wrong - reply
to this post with your birth date. Year not required, but that's up to
you. Since there are both Europeans and Americans here, please type out
the name of the month, so as to avoid confusion of day/month numbers.

----

I'll start off with my own:

June 25th (1984)

Out of courtesy, please snip the rest of this message!...

Thanks, and hoping I'm right,
-Shiri
