The sisters published the song in a collection entitled "Song Stories of the
Kindergarten" in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became
the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia
University's Teacher College, a gentleman by the name of Robert H. Coleman
published the song, without the sisters' permission. To add insult to
injury, he added a second verse, the familiar "Happy Birthday to You."
Mr. Coleman's addition of the second verse popularized the song and,
eventually, the sisters' original first verse disappeared. "Happy Birthday
to You," the one and only birthday song, had altogether replaced the
sisters' original title, "Good Morning to All."
After Mildred died in 1916, Patty, together with a third sister named
Jessica, sprang into action and took Mr. Coleman to court. In court, they
proved that they, indeed, owned the melody. Because the family legally owns
the song, it is entitled to royalties from it, whenever it is sung for
commercial purposes.
Warner Communications paid $28 million for the copyright to the song "Happy
Birthday".
To whom did they pay it ???? Can't find out....
"Happy Birthday" was the first song to be performed in outer space, sung by
the Apollo IX astronauts on March 8, 1969.

In many countries, it is the custom to wish friends a "Happy Birthday" on January 1st, rather than a "Happy New Year." This day is nicknamed "Everyman's Birthday," and is considered the day when everyone becomes a year older, whether it's their actual day of birth or not. Similarly, this practice is observed in horse racing. No matter when a race horse is born, they all "become" a year older on New Year's Day, although there are no records explaining how or why this came to be.
April is a promising month to be born if you aspire to be a television talk show host. David Frost (April 7), David Letterman (April 12), Conan O'Brien (April 18), Charles Grodin (April 21), and Jay Leno (April 28) all share April birthdays.

Computer viruses are bits of software code that either overwrite or attach themselves to programs and replicate themselves. While some are merely annoying, taking up valuable disk space, others can wipe out an entire hard drive. If the Michelangelo virus is on your computer, it activates on March 6, the artist's birthday. Viruses were first discovered in the late 1980s, and since that time, IBM's Thomas J. Watson Research Center has collected more than 10,000. It is estimated that six to nine new viruses are found daily. About 1,200 computer viruses are in circulation. Please don't create one on your birthday!
