Recently, I came across a  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flZXJ-Ewsn4">YouTube video</a> by James Randi, where he has some fun with a video reading of his chart by an <a href="http://www.simplyastrology.com/videohoroscopes/">Australian astrologer</a>.  This video (since removed by the author) was an analysis that not only left out the birth time, but was wrong by 20 days (the dating error, as far as I can discover, originated with an American astrologer).  In his rebuttal, Randi points out that not only is his correct birthdate listed in many online sources, but that he is perfectly willing to confirm the date, time and place of his birth to any enquirer.  So that&#8217;s what I did, simply explaining that I was an astrologer and was interested in the data.  the following reply came back within the hour:<br />
“August 7th, 1928, at 1:20 a.m., in Toronto, Canada.  Available several places on the Internet&#8230;”</p>
