Thanks! That's very useful, actually. This post was all about process of elimination, so that's one more bit of the year we can cross off the list. Also, used in combination with date of the journal entry from the pilot about the seven year old Fraser (thanks to the_antichris and vienna_waits, above), we can figure out his birth year for certain. Since we know that he wasn't born Dec 23-Jan 21 (not a Capricorn), and the entry when he's seven is dated Jan 10, 1969, then we now know that he didn't turn seven in the first ten days of 1969. That means he did turn seven some time in 1968, which means Fraser's birth year is definitely 1961. Cool, huh?
