The Beautiful Mind of John Nash

As a followup from my previous posts, and in reference again to the dinner conversation that Cath, Gillman and I had the other night, there was one other name that had cropped up earlier on the topic of irrational vs rational behaviour.  Gillman brought up the name "John Nash"... the person depicted in the film "A Beautiful Mind", where actor Russel Crowe plays the part of Nash.  

Gillman brought up John Nash when he was trying to explain "Game Theory"... which subsequently led to the topic of irrational vs rational behaviour.   So I decided to venture to John Nash's wiki page, where the following was revealed:
 John Forbes Nash, Jr. (born June 13, 1928) is an American mathematician whose works in game theorydifferential geometry, andpartial differential equations have provided insight into the forces that govern chance and events inside complex systems in daily life. His theories are used in market economics, computing, evolutionary biologyartificial intelligence, accounting, politics and military theory. 
Note his date of birth... we celebrate the same birthday... hence this is an addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster.  Not only that, this day also cropped up in my investigations earlier today, in my post entitled: Sitting in Our Nowhere Land...Making Nowhere Plans with nobody.  Note this excerpt:
  • The drama tells the story of John Lennon's (Aaron Johnson) teenage years from 1955–1960
The name of the actor re Aaron Johnson stands out given that it's an addition to the recent "Aaron/Erin..." and "John/Johnson..." pattern-clusters.  Hence serving as another likely inner twin lead, note the following from Aaron's wiki page:
  • Aaron Taylor-Johnson[4] (born Aaron Perry Johnson; 13 June 1990)
