Hm, I changed the birthdate from 8th to 7th, because that's what Grove and everything else I could find says, but Grove (well, Grove Concise anyway) also says that he died 21st, not 22nd. I'm not changing that just yet, however, as others do seem to think it was 22nd. If anybody with a really authoritative source could say what it is one way or the other (or if people authoritatively say we don't know one way or the other), that would be good. --Camembert
