Request for Question Clarification by tisme-ga on 06 Dec 2002 12:26 PST

I have a source where you could obtain this information from, but you
would have to write a written request to an address in London, because
they do not release this information without a good reason.

Below is an excerpt from a person I have been corresponding with about
obtaining this information:

"I have spoken to the Ballet Company but this is not information that
they would issue, without specific reason for the request.   I would
suggest that you write directly  to :
 
Nathan Coppen c/o The Royal Ballet 
Royal Opera House 
Covent Garden
London WC2E 9DD
UK"

It would probably not be appropriate for a researcher to request this
information directly. Please let me know if you are willing to accept
this as an answer or if you want us to keep on searching.

Clarification of Question by bluestreak-ga on 06 Dec 2002 12:40 PST

Tisme,                                                                
         Excellent tip. I will indeed write to them in an effort to
answer the question. I feel like a partner with the researchers. We
are a true team. Just this week I was able to sucessfully answer 2
questions(Klepper & Quercetani) through 2 researchers providing phone
numbers to Germany & Italy for the 2 cited above. If I can obtain his
birthday in whatever way through your strong lead, you will most
definitely receieve credit for a sucessful answer. You can continue
searching if you feel it is justified, knowing that I will be
following up your great lead. I will keep you updated.  Bluestreak

I've managed to get this down to a month and a half.

From an article dated 1 July 2001, it says that he is 26. If he was
born in 1974 his birthday must be after 1 July 2001.

Article dated August 20 2002 puts his age at 28. Therefore his
birthday must be before 20 August.

I'm still working on it but for other researchers who want to give it
a go, it should be between 2 July and 19 August.

Sounds great Bluestreak, I will see what else I can come up with.
