If 41 people are at a party, what is the probability that more than two of them have the same birthday? Assume that there are 365 days in a year and all days are equally likely to be the birthday of a specific person. Use Taylor series expansion of the exponential function to provide a first-order approximation of the result if necessary.

A couple of years ago I did a series of studies looking at whether nondepressed people would use these same linguistic patterns when they were stressed out. I found that the more stress people report feeling in a social...
