In related news, today would have been the ~~58th~~ 56th birthday of composer Giachino Rossini (1792-1868)

Edit: corrected to account for 1800 and 1900 not being leap years

Wouldn't they be 56? 1800 and 1900 are not leap years.

Damn, you're right. I didn't know about the 400 rule lol. Gonna edit to reflect that
