^No that's not true. It's just that the probability of two people within a group of 25+ sharing the same birthday is more than 0.5. It's not probable that someone within a group has the same birthday as you specifically.

There is a high probability that a room filled with thirty randomly selected people - even prog musicians plus you - share the same birthday. This is so sweet.....come on...... grow up........ what's the point? Oh! I forgot, thinking such sweet things.  Sheesh!

Since I was born on the 16th of February, I share the same ones as Man Erg. Still the best known person I share my birthday with (altough he probably doesn't know that) is mister John Mc Enroe (one of the top five tennis player of all-times).
We were actually born on the very same day. February 16, 1959 (yes, I know I'm getting old)  |

13th July: Fatboy Slim (ouch!), Benny Benassi (double ouch!), Roger McGuinn of the Byrds, Mark Greenway of Napalm Death, Joost van den Broek of After Forever. And the Italian legend Gorni Kramer!!!
May I add the Queen (their first album was released the very day I was born)?
