Oh, Dave, you responded to the Bat Signal. OLIGARCH! OLIGARCH! My mother

how history played out, neither you or I would be communicating here, as
neither of us would exist.
Thank your lucky stars for how all history played out before you were
conceived. Otherwise, two other people might, or might not, be posting
here and now. Thanks, all of history before me!

 
Why would it matter?  There isn't some sort of cosmic waiting
room where people are queued up to be born.
 

I know you don't care for 1970's music but in Jethro Tull's 'A Passion
Play' there is indeed a queue of people waiting to be born... at least
in the song lyrics:
