Major bug fixes and improvements by Christopher J. Madsen
This is a Greasemonkey user script, see http://www.greasespot.net/,
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/748 and http://userscripts.org/
New versions can be found either on my site or on the userscripts site:

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/1060
This script adds the age and other various info onto IMDB pages. Specifically
it adds some details to actor or actresses pages. It adds their age, their
Tropical Zodiac Sign and their Chinese Zodiac Sign. As well as adding how many
years ago and how old they were when they made the listed films. It also adds
how long a go a film was made on a film page.
Any of the above can be turned on or off by setting the following settings in about:config:
greasemonkey.scriptvals.http://www.stewarts.org.uk/IMDBAge.doFilmAge
greasemonkey.scriptvals.http://www.stewarts.org.uk/IMDBAge.doNameAge

This was the method I used to find some of the people above, eeeeu!
(If you are crazy enough to run this, expect it to take ages. It takes 30min on a Intel Core Duo 2 CPU 6400 @ 2.13GHz.)
