Google tells me today would be Copernicus’ birthday, which led me to review what I know about Copernicus.

1. Male scientist from a long time ago; now dead.

2. Born on February 19th.

3. Not mentioned in an Indigo Girls song.*

4. Not the one who talked about the music of the spheres.**

5. Not, as far as I can remember, a name picked in fanfiction for Rodney McKay’s cats (or kids).

[*Galileo came after Copernicus, as it turns out.]

[**starandrea helped me out with this one -- apparently I was thinking of Pythagoras]
