Apr. 7th, 2006 02:32 pmOne of the strange facts of statistics (besides the "Monty Hall Problem") is that it is more likely in a room of 30 people to have two people with the same birthday than for everyone to have a unique day.

I think that faireraven has one more on her list that isn't on mine, but I might be wrong. (and squire_liz and elvisolb miss by only one day)
There are a few others that have at least three who I know on them, but mine is the only 4 I know.
Of course, if folks like Maso would put their b-days onto the LJ info pages, it'd be easier to keep track.... but have you looked at your http://www.livejournal.com/birthdays.bml page lately?
Oh, and you can add rivendellchild to your b-day list as well
