***OT*** Einstein's Birthday
Sorry, Cameron, but Einstein was born on MARCH 14th, not
January. It was in 1879, in Ulm. I should know. I was
born on his seventieth birthday (March 14, 1949), in
the same hospital where he died, a mile away from where
he lived, and my Aunt Ann was one of his attending
nurses at that same hospital when he died. Small
world.
Other March 14th types include actor Michael Caine,
composer Quincy Jones, Hank Ketcham (creator of
Dennis the Menace), photographer Diane Arbus, and
astronaut Frank Borman.
Among those born on JANUARY 14th was, uh, Benedict
Arnold. <g>
