happy birthday!

the little tvs in the elevators in most manhattan office buildings display, amongst the news/stock quotes/restaurant adverts, a "happy birthday!" screen with the names of a few people born that day. for the most part it comes off not as, "happy birthday!" but as, "hey, this person is still alive! also, they were born this day several years ago."

examples: andrew shue, jennifer grey, eve plumb, kurt loder?

have you heard any of these names in the past 5 years? i thought not. but now we know that they're alive, each and every one of them. congrats folks!
