Given the amount of times Sep 28th 1970 is mentioned in the nginx code  
(see below), I am putting a rough guess that this is your birthday.  
So, in this very special day, I wanted to thank you for your amazing  
little kid and I would have loved to buy you a beer but you’re a bit  
far away. If you ever get near the south of France, I’ll buy you one.

Of course, I could be completely wrong.
