What are the odds indeed...

One 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.

Well, seeing even only 15 people's Wiki-memes today and so far, not just one pair (myself and masowolf , already known but sometimes needs a reminder ;-) ), but a second pair has shown up, of dawntreader90 and rennfoole !

Go fig...literally...

ladyaelfwynn and I also have the same birthday. Will get to the wikipedia meme at some point.

Um...yeah! I concur!!!

Haven't the foggiest what the wiki-memes are, as I've only been skimming... and barely that the last few days...

But there are at *least* 4 of us in LJ land on my list who are also MDRF attendees who share the same b-day: ocin, barwench23235, museclio, and me... 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
