# Yay!
Not on IMDB, but may I request a Fyodor Dostoyevsky for tomorrow? I like beards.
/edit: crap -some sources say he was born on 30th, some on Nov 11th. Damn those nineteenth century Russian record keepers!

# Errr....
wikipedia says the 11th Nov, as does fyodordostoevsky.com.
However www.imdb.com say "Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky was born on November 11, 1821, in Moscow, Russia" and then goes on to say "Born: Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky October 30". Bloody Retards!

* I think we should go with the 11th Nov and I have added this to the diary...

Kind Retards

Different calendars - Russian usage changed in 1918:

# So if we add 14 days to the 30th Oct...
We get the 13th November O_O

# Just roll with tomorrow...
Or upload half of him tomorrow, the other half in November.

# No - for a year in the 1800s
add 12 days. Because the old calendar didn't count leap years in the same way.
