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
