	I think you have Hawthorne living a hundred years later than he actually did.

	please accept cortes without the accent and MLB, instead of baseball. only MLB was on strike, not every baseball league.

	Flick:	Feb 1st, 2012 at 15:55 GMT	4 points
	@crazylegs and hahobigshot: the date has been altered, the accent-less answer acepted and the MLB questioned changed to avoid confusion. Thanx both

	I wonder which is the source that gives the date of Aristotle's death including the exact day. I think that any date prior to the introduction of the Julian calendar (around 45 BC) is uncertain, unless there was some phenomenon like an eclipse whose date can be calculated precisely.

	@dancastro: I think you're certainly right, the date has become attached to him somewhere in the later annuls of history, but as 80%+ are getting it from the year/clue I'll leave it on.
