Roberto Civita RIIP and a Double 222 Bump in the Night

The name Robert has cropped up a number of times lately in relation to persons found on the Deaths in 2013 site, note for instance this excerpt from my previous post:
...from Bumps wiki page:
  • Robert Alexander "Bumps" Blackwell (May 23, 1918 – March 9, 1985) 
 Note the following concerning his birthday:
  • May 23 is the 143rd day of the year (144th in leap years) . There are 222 days remaining in the year.
Immediately after finishing the post, I ventured back to the Deaths in 2013 site and saw that another Robert (with an "o") had been added to the list under May 26th:
Roberto Civita, 76, Italian-born Brazilian businessman, CEO of Grupo Abril, heart failure
This at least warrants further investigation, note the following from Roberto's wiki page:
Born9 August 1936
Note the following info regarding his birthday:
August 9 is the 221st day of the year (222nd in leap years). There are 144 days remaining 
Since  the year of his birth, 1936, was a leap year, then he was born on the 222nd day of the year.
So a 222's mirror-twin makes for a double bump in the night.
