I think I've mentioned this before, but you might be wondering why there are no recent births in these lists.  I am doing my best to protect the privacy of living folks by not including their data in them.  That is, if the list includes someone I know or reasonably believe to be living, I remove the birth date from the list for that day.  I had to remove a couple from today's list, which reminded me to discuss it.  By "reasonably believe" I usually use 100 years as a guideline unless I otherwise know that the person has died.  This means I'm probably cutting out a few folks who could have stayed in the lists, but I prefer to err on the side of caution.

You might note as we go through the days that there are virtually no births listed in recent times.  This is simply because for privacy of those individuals, I have chosen to not list information for people still living.  So you see deaths, but not births or marriages or other items.

 
In fact, today is my brother's birthday, so if you're reading this, Happy birthday Mitch!
