Knox, Knox, Knox'n on Heavens Door

Continuing from my previous post, I had left off with:

• An "August 18(x2)" pattern-cluster... a difficult one to interpret!!  

On the August 18 wiki page:

• 1990 – B. F. Skinner (March 20, 1904 – August 18, 1990) invented the Skinner box 
• 1994 – Francis Raymond Shea  bishop 
• 2001 – David Peakall (17 March 1931 – 18 August 2001) chemist, toxicologist 

The two birthdays stand out due to the following birthdays found in my previous post:

• 1998 – Jonathan Kwitny (March 23, 1941 – November 26, 1998) journalist, author 
• 2001 – Nils-Aslak Valkeapää (23 March 1943 – 26 November 2001) author, poet, painter 

We now have a "March 17, 20, 23(x2)/ Increments of 3 Date Sequence" pattern-cluster.
Note from Shea's wiki page:

• Shea was born in Knoxville, Tennessee on December 4, 1913.  

Note the cryptic "knocks villa" in the city's name... not to mention all the twin letters in Tennessee.  A definite heads up.  Some of the notable persons from the Knoxville wiki page who stand out the most:

• James Longstreet (January 8, 1821 – January 2, 1904) 
• Simon Bolivar Buckner (April 1, 1823 – January 8, 1914)  
• George Bibb Crittenden (March 20, 1812 – November 27, 1880)  

So not only do we have two January 8's, butt note from my previous post:

• 1998 – Galina Ulanova (8 January 1910 [O.S. 26 December 1909]  – 21 March 1998) ballerina 
• 1999 – Jean Guitton (August 18, 1901 – March 21, 1999)philosopher, author 
• 1999 – Ernie Wise (27 November 1925 – 21 March 1999) comedian, actor 
• 2001 – Chung Ju-yung (November 25, 1915 – March 21, 2001) founded Hyundai 
• 2001 – Anthony Steel (21 May 1920 – 21 March 2001) actor, singer 

January 8th is also the birthday of my step son

And now for some other of the more notable Knoxville notable's:

• Henry Knox (July 25, 1750 – October 25, 1806) Namesake
• Madeline Anne Rogero (born July 26, 1952) Mayor
• David Carpenter Chapman (9 August 1876 – 26 July 1944)   

• William Gannaway Brownlow (August 29, 1805 – April 29, 1877) 
• John Gunther (August 30, 1901 – May 29, 1970) 

• Charles William Dabney (June 19, 1855 – June 15, 1945 
• Harvey Alexander Logan (1867 – June 17, 1904)

• Edmund Kirby Smith (May 16, 1824 – March 28, 1893)  

• Felix Kirk Zollicoffer (May 19, 1812 – January 19, 1862) 

• Ambrose Everett Burnside (May 23, 1824 – September 13, 1881) 

With a little investigating using this blogs search box, you'll see why some of the dates are significant...  and some generate pattern-clusters.  And here are the rest of the Knoxville notables:

• Andrew Jackson (March 15, 1767 – June 8, 1845) 
• James White (1747 – August 14, 1821) 
• Joseph Wheeler (September 10, 1836 – January 25, 1906)  
• William Price Sanders (August 12, 1833 – November 19, 1863)  
• Robert Leroy Parker (April 13, 1866 – November 7, 1908) aka Butch Cassidy

As for the title of this post, it's a play on the song:

 Knockin' on Heaven's Door" is a song written and sung by Bob Dylan 

Note from Dylan's wiki page:

• Bob Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) 

And so we now have a "May 16...  21, __, 23, 24, ... 29"/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster.
