Those two yutzes were actually born on the same day.... Acutely observant people will realize that Dr. Principles and I were born within a month or less (as I recall) of that same date as well. Same year.
I have a clear memory that sticks in my brain for the most trivial of reasons-- the old Diplomacy game server kicks the registered birthdays of all the players out for a GM running a game, and the first time it did that when all the aforementioned people were in the same game, it struck me as bizarre that so many people in the game had birthdays that close.
It's a clear enough memory that I would have bet twenty bucks on Dr. Principles being one of the four within-a-month people.

Weird.
