It’s always easy to forget Nic’s birthday, he was born on February 29, 2000 which isn’t just any Leap Day, it’s the one that happens once every 400 years.
His unusual birthday helped me discover a shortcoming I need to report to Apple with iCal and Address Book. There is a field/value for a person’s birthday in Address Book which is then detected by iCal; you set the preferences to “show birthday calendar” which is really a local subscription to have them appear. His birthday disappears on years without Leap Days. Hence, why I completely spaced.
Somara and I quickly got him a funny card in the mail. I hope to hear from his dad (Nelson) about getting the little dude something nice. Not sure if he’s old enough for iTunes.
Should you know Nelson, drop him a line. I think it’ll cheer him up because Spring in Chicago is still a ways off!
