Love your discovery of coincidences .. although its
foundation in the mathematics of probability seems
wobbly.
Did you know if you have a group of only 23 people -
the probability that 2 people in that group have the
same birthday is better than even .. ie. more than
50%?
Similarly if you take 2 dates (such as 7 Sept) in any
random grouping of 23 posts .. you'll probably find a
connection somewhere. Its well exploited by all those
astrologers whose knowledge of probstats wud put us
techno-experts to shame.
