Year of birth: I trust the Encyclopedia Norvegica that Dahle is born in 1947. Place of birth: He speaks an Oslo dialect, which at least indicates that he didn't grow up in Bergen. The source you quote says he is from Bergen, not that he's born in Bergen. Sexuality: He is gay, but this is not relevant to his work as an economic politician. There are hundreds of categories at Wikipedia, but you don't have to be in all of them. --Eddi (Talk) 21:10, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
