Yesterday in a party, I asked Mr. Shah his birthday. With a
mischievous glint in his eyes he replied. "The day before
yesterday I was 83 years old and next year I will be 86."
Can you figure out what is the Date of Birth of Mr. Shah?
Assume that the current year is 2000.

Answer / guest
Mr. Shah's date of birth is 31 December, 1915
Today is 1 January, 2000. The day before yesterday was 30
December, 1999 and Mr. Shah was 83 on that day. Today i.e. 1
January, 2000 - he is 84. On 31 December 2000, he will be 85
and next year i.e. 31 December, 2001 - he will be 86. Hence,
the date of birth is 31 December, 1915.
Many people do think of Leap year and date of birth as 29th
February as 2000 is the Leap year and there is difference of
3 years in Mr. Shah's age. But that is not the answer.
