I'm Here to Kill a King (Route 66 Part 3)

As a followup to my previous post I decided to investigate the Route 66 episode, "I'm Here to Kill a King".  Note this excerpt from the episodes IMDb info page:

Tod and Linc, working at Niagara Falls, find some odd incidents puzzling. Tod eventually learns he has a double who looks and sounds exactly like him. The "evil twin" is a cold blooded hit man with the assignment of killing a visiting Arab king. Tod is kidnapped and his job at the Falls used as a venue for the hit. 

Researching the various actors and crew involved in the episode has uncovered many pattern-clusters, most of which involves their dates of birth and/or deaths, note the following:

Stirling Silliphant -

 (January 16, 1918 – April 26, 1996) 

Glenn Corbett - (August 17, 1933 – January 16, 1993) 
Herbert B. Leonard - (October 8, 1922  – October 14, 2006)

Jack Gleason (October 8, 1918 – April 24, 2005)

Frank Campanella (March 12, 1919 - December 30, 2006)

Abe Haberman (October 9, 1909 - December 30, 1997)

Daniel Ward Hays (March 23, 1909 - August 7, 1983)

Of the above,  "Daniel Ward Hays" stands out for three reasons-- first of all, since today is March 22nd, his birthday is tomorrow, hence an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster.  His date of death is also an addition to the same cluster given that August 8th is my ex husbands birthday.  Now we come to his name and because of the spoonerism found within is an addition to the recent "Spoonerism" pattern-cluster... re: "Daniel Hard Ways" or if you consider that most Daniels are nicknamed Dan, the spoonerism becomes "wan hard days"... and "wan" is an actual word albeit not a common one, note the etymology: 

wan (adj.) wann "dark, dusky, lacking luster," later "leaden, pale, gray... colorlessness. Perhaps related to wane...

So the cryptic sense then becomes "Dark Hard Days"!!   This can be taken as both literal and metphoric.  It's interesting to note that "dark" and "colourless" are in the same description because the truth of the matter is that with less sunlight over a great period of time humans evolve to have "pale/colourless" skin-- natures means of encouraging absorption of much needed Vitamin D from sunlight.   AND with that said, we are presently in an Ice Age (at the tail end of our present day interglacial period (a 20,000 year cycle on average) and will soon enter into the next glacial period (an 80,000 year cycle on average).

Now let's consider the pattern-clusters involving the other cast and crew members as listed above: 

Corbett died on Silliphant's birthday hence generating a "January 16" pattern-cluster... a date that is also an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster given that January 15 is the birthday of both my son and life partner who are 22 years apart.  Leonard and Gleason were born on the same day, hence generating an "October 8" pattern-cluster ... and keep in mind that even though October is the 10th month, it was once the 8th... hence "October" means "8" in origin.  Campanella and Haberman died on the same day, hence generating a "December 30" pattern-cluster that is also two additions to the "Off by One" pattern-cluster given that it's one off from the last day of the year!!  

Of course there is a cryptic meaning in all of this and I'm able and more than willing to give my Tou Sense Worth in deciphering if anyone is interested enough to ask.
