Actually, Beethoven's date of birth remains somewhat of a mystery. His baptism on December 17th leads credence to a birthdate of 16 December as common practice was to baptise children within 24 hours of their birth.
And yes, I might have been talking about the lovable St. Bernard, but I wasn't.

Whoa, cool birthday! Hope you had a happy one, Teriel! Though I must say that with the possibility of double the presents, you probably couldn't help but have a spectacular one!

I've noticed on other websites that it says today, January 3rd is Tolkien's birthday. Is this correct? If so, I just wanted to make note of this fact.

That is correct! There was a worldwide Birthday Toast at 9:00 p.m. in the UK, I believe. You can post your toast entry here.

It is indeed Tolkien's birthday January 3rd. It's my birthday, too. Though I don't claim that it means anything, I am very pleased by that.
Praise and thanks to JRR.
I have read much of the british experience of the first world war for that generation. As a group, junior officers had the highest casualty rate. It was a narrow thing for people like C.S. Lewis and Tolkien to be here for us. Even more so to be here retaining the spirit to create. Thanks again for the gift of Tolkien.
