I already know the answer - Dave Brooks and I have the same date, also shared
with Marilyn Monroe and Ed Sullivan.
For clarity, the later two are not PDML members however.

Hahaha! funny story. We should try the birthday paradox with the list
members. There are probably enough of us to demonstrate the math.

Birthday paradox
I remember when I first encountered the so-called "Birthday Paradox".
It was the typical introduction - our maths teacher asked our class
of around thirty students to estimate the probability that there was
at least one duplicated birthday.
After he asked the first three or four people, and received widely
differing answers (but all with a very low guess) he asked me.
I suggested "100%", pointing out that our class contained two pairs
of twins (one pair identical, one very much non-identical).
