I was born on March 21, 1988, exactly 220 years after the birth Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier. Huh? How did I really get to know this? The answer lies in the Signals and Systems book by Robert J. Oppenheim.
Back in my second year of my undergraduate study at NIT Trichy, I had a truly gifted lecturer who taught me Signals and Systems. He prided himself as to being extremely knowledgeable about the subject; his only drawback was that he attempted to do calculus in class without knowing basic math. It was then that I decided to learn the subject myself - I decided to read the book myself from beginning till end. I spotted the date of birth of Fourier in the introduction chapter.
