You would need 367 if one of the people in the room was my younger brother - 29th Feb

Young Henry mentioned his mother's Birthday below and it reminded me of a probability experiment that states if 23 people are in a room, it is more likely than less that 2 of them share a birthday. What date is your birthday people? Mine is 31st March. Let us see if the first 23 posters to this can get a matching pair?

The probability of at least two people sharing the same birthday is 0.5073. Yay, I've found a use for Wolfram Alpha! http://www04.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=same+birthday&f1=23&f=BirthdayProblem.n_23&x=5&y=9[^]

Hmm, 21st I think, which is a shame because it would have matched mine - 30th Oct :-)

Does it count if this is my wife's birthday?
If she has a little bit of luck, she'll never be forced to share a room with me - even a waiting room as an airport, so probably not.
