Moontanman Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 What calender? How many people are born on other days, average? Quote
modest Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 I think we need an algorithm displaying the standard deviation for number of birthdays on any given day as compared to the yearly mean :thumbs_up ~modest Quote

Tormod Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 The calander says there are 67 birthdays on Feb 1This seems odd. No, they are on January 1. I believe this is due to the fact that a lot of members will simply choose the default dates offered in the sign-up form. Turtle 1 Quote

I guess some would be worried about birthdates as credit card/bank type people always ask you yours as part of a security check when you ring them. Quote
