When you are sitting down trying to figure out what to put on the date of birth, you kinda tend to prefer dates that stick with you.
I AM not SAYING that they made up the dates. I WOULD never SAY THAT.

Actually Raj, the odds are quite high. There is a theory called the "Birthday Paradox" where the probability of two people sharing the same birthday exceeds .5 in a group of ONLY 23 people (which is pretty counter intuitive).

I work in a company that has about 40 people, and I share the same birthday with someone else, and there are two others who share the same birthday!

yea i learned about that in calculus class. In a class of 30 ppl, i think there is a 70% chance that two ppl will have the same birthday. For a 11 man team, it is more like 10-15% i think. The odds increase tremendously as you go up in total population.
