[edit] Birth date

Some references have him being born on December 12, while others say December 21. Anyone have any idea how to resolve this? -- Rick Block (talk) 23:00, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

And multiple users keep changing the birth year to 1940. Most sources say 1941. If you think it should be 1940, please cite your source. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:28, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
