Not sure if it's a bug or whatever, but I find it quite strange there to be tons of birthdays today and the majority are turning 100Confused

If it isn't a mistake or bug, please feel free to close this thread.

It's not a bug, it's the way the forum software is set up in member's profile.

The first entry in the day/month/year will give you January 1 and go back 99 years.  Today, you'll see that the first entries are 01/01/1910.  Therefore on Jan. 1 of next year, we'll have another slew of 100th birthdays from people that just selected the first entry in each date field because they didn't want to bother doing their proper birthday.

An odd choice, mind you, because you don't have to put anything at all, you can just leave it blank (as I do).

Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
