Anyway, obviously my story is somewhat light on detail, and I'm not expecting anyone to jump in and solve my specific problem. But I couldn't be the only person to ever hit this problem—what are others doing with their "birthday" attributes in 2010?
"The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor."

IMO, this fight is absolutely not worth the effort. Store your "birthday" attributes as integers (19700302) or strings and create cover methods on your EOs to convert to date and back.
