Hi.

I'm not sure if it is a "glitch" with the forum software but it is my birthday today and the forum says:

0 member(s) have a birthday today

No members are celebrating a birthday today

sob...... nobody loves me.... :(

Phil (yes I have got my date of birth in my profile....)

I may be paranoid (ok so I'm actually paranoid..) but in my country birth date is used as information for personal identification. As such it is often used as necessary but not sufficient form of ID when dealing with bureaucracy. I keep mine secret. Identity theft is devastating to those affected by it. Sorry to the OP for bringing the festive mood down, but happy birthday anyway. unsure.gif I'll go back into hiding now...

It's not an required item. So if you don't want people to know...just dont fill in the date. Or just a partial date also works.
