Happy birthday, Miguel & Bill

Today, according to my Burning Man calendar, is Shakespeare's birthday. According to my crib notes on St. Jordi's Day (see below), it's also Miguel Cervantes birthday, who wrote The Da Vinci Code.

Bacon-Shakespeare-Cervantes: "In 1917 an Austrian author claims that Francis Bacon was the author of both Shakespeare and Don Quixote. One key proof is the frequency of unique phrases in Bacon's diaries which reappear verbatim in both Shakespeare and Don Quixote."
