Nicely phrased.
Me too.
I think so. That would make me the second. October 1964…the tail end of the Baby Boomers (Dad was in WWII. Mom was almost 40 when they had a surprise. Risky for the 60’s).
1970 here

1961 here.

March, 1964 as well. We are Dragons in the Chinese Zodiac.
Still no spreadsheet on Google Docs?
You can add me to the '61s. Thanks for compiling, echo7tango - I lost steam after the second page!
1969 here. There are too many pages here for me to see who I coincide with. How about a poll consisting of every year from, say 1945 to whatever 18 years ago was. Then all I’d have to do is click a clicker on the internet.
Sampiro posted such a poll some time back.
Another 1960 here.
In case somebody wants to replicate a poll that was done a few years back on this topic, check out THIS IS THE DOPER YEAR/MONTH/DECADE OF BIRTH POLL (ignore all others) which was active between 03-13-2010, 11:24 AM and 03-19-2010, 10:51 PM.

Here’s the 1961 list:

There are other threads dealing with ages and years of birth and other similar criteria and I know of at least these:
In which 5-year period were you born?
How many Feb. 29s have you seen?
and a list of URL’s at
http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=16171208&postcount=23
Is there a more recent pivot table or graph of the dates in this thread than
PIVOT TABLE http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i84/NinetyWt/DoperYOB.jpg
============
I have been going back through these threads checking profiles for latest activity, birth years, ages, and that sort of thing.
Here’s what I know so far about the Over-60 Dopers group, and I’d appreciate any help in filling in the missing details. The names with no additional data shown came up somewhere along the way and I’m not sure they should really be on the list.
Please note that I have tried to identify deceased and long absent Dopers. If that needs to be updated or corrected please let me know.
============================================
Dopers at least 60 years old:
** = deceased
## = long absence

Well I’m from 1991.
Any other palindrome babies here?
It’s not palindromic, but it is the same upside-down as right-side-up.
Sweet. I can think of only two possible years that are palindromes. 1991 and 2002. It would take 99 more years to have another one. 1961 however is quite unique.
I’m from 1953: Stalin died, the Korean War ended, Playboy started publication. Waiting for Godot debuted, as did The Crucible. Disney had Peter Pan, Salk announced his polio vaccine, and Ian Fleming produced his first Bond novel. Mickey Mantle hit the longest home run in baseball history. Crick & Watson published their findings on the DNA molecule. REM sleep was discovered. The first Corvette was built. So, not too bad a year.
Gregorian: 1959
also
Buddhist: 2503
Chinese: 己亥 (Jǐ Hài)—Yin Earth Pig
Hijri: 1379
Hindu: 1881
Jewish: 5719
Zoroastrian: 1329
