Wäre nicht Paula Abdul am 19. Juni 1962 geboren, so tippte ich jetzt auf das Geburtsjahr 1963 wie bei den folgenden (09.08.1963, 29.06.1963, 04.07.1963, 26.10.1963 und bei dem letzten der Liste der 04.04.1963). Mmmh.

I'm not very good in doing calculations but my congrats referred to this posting. Did I miss something?
