Can someone confirm Sam's DOB? (The ever reliable wikipedia puts it at 08/08/1953)
I am certain that under normal conditions that Sam could only travel within his own lifetime, but the newspaper first shown in "Play It Again, Seymour" is from April 14, 1953, four months before he was born.
Is wikipedia wrong, was there special conditions for that leap, or did the writers pull a Ronald D Moore and create the "traveling within his own lifetime" rule after the 1st season.
And if anybody else has posted this question (and they most likely have), please could you link to that thread or merge this one in with it.
