Nov 18. Somebody already mentioned the birthday problem (with link no less), but I continue to find it interesting, even years after I learned about it, so for those of you too lazy to click the link here it is: In a group of 23 people it’s 50% likely that two will share a birthday. In a group of 57 it’s 99% likely. According to wikipedia the most common birthday in the US is October 5. The least common is May 22. ---

I would bet it is February 29th for obvious reasons. I am talking about the date on the birth certificate, not how people born on that day compensate for it. ---
