Notes on the birthday list.
1. The Picture Slot. The only actor who got a Picture Slot before this on February 7th is Buster Crabbe from Flash Gordon. There are several actors here with well known faces in big budget genre movies - Miguel Ferrer, James Spader, Eddie Izzard, Chris Rock, Ashton Kutcher and the late Pete Postlethwaite -I decided to go with Deborah Ann Woll as Jessica on True Blood, for the reasons that this is her best known role - not true of the genre roles for the other actors mentioned - and she's a fabulous babe.
2. A Canadian stands alone. Victor Webster is Canadian, but it isn't competely clear from his credit list.
Many happy returns to all the living on the list and to the dead, thanks for all the memories.

Prediction: It is my opinion that there is to be a wonderful development of the resources of the state of Florida in the next century. It will not only become a great sanitarium for the invalids of the East, but a rival with the Mediterranean districts for those who seek comfort in Winter travel. Transportation facilities will be so increased that the orange district, especially along the east coast, will practically furnish the United States all the oranges the market requires.
Reality: Sorry I couldn't find a picture of this Samuel Barton. His father was a politician and more famous in his day. His predictions for Florida are so close to exactly right, I only can quibble that California also has a large percentage of the orange market in the U.S.A. His is not the only prediction from the 1893 set that is a capitalist proclaiming his favorite investment will change the world - just a couple weeks ago, a guy was predicting Buffalo would be a huge metropolis - but as far as I can recall, his is the most accurate of that collection. Nice work, Mr. Barton.
