How can you wish a person 'happy birthDAY' when it's not his birth DAY, its his birth DATE? How can you wish him a happy birthday when he wasn't born at that time nor day? Iif he was born in January, why don't you all wish him a happy birthmonth? That way he'll get presents every day! If he was born on a Monday, doesn't that make every Monday his birthDAY? So howcome people wish each other a happy birthDAY when people celebrate their birth in the month, date and time they were born and never the DAY?????? Their birthDAY would come only after a few years.

The anniversary date of the person's birth ;is the day we traditionally choose to celebrate their birthday.
If we got as involved as your question in thinking about these things, I think we'd just have to say "Forget about it." I guess it would save us time and money, though.:)

It's some kind of statistical thing where the odds of NOT having two people with the same birthday becomes lower than having 2 people with the same birthday... It's like if nobody wins the lottery in a long time... you know 30 people are gonna win when it actually hits.
