For those who have forgotten what Pi means, it is the ratio of circumference of a perfect circle divided by it's diameter. "Pi" is used extensively in math & engineering.

There are only 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don’t.

Is there any indication of people commemorating the day back on March 14, 1915?

[Talisker]

My first math insight was when as a kid I was thinking about Pi and realized it applied equally to all sizes of circles. I know, obvious. But to me it wasn’t obvious until it became obvious, and then the whole world shifted and I “got” WHY math was so important to science and the natural world. I was dancing around in amazement and told some people about my incredible insight, but they just shrugged and said “yeah, that’s how it works.” Ah, the frustrating experiences of childhood!

My anniversary too!

Actually, there was only one Pi day, which was 3/14/1531 at 4:15, if you don’t count abbreviated years.

When I was a kid I memorized it to 15 places. Not sure why I stopped there. 3.141592653589793.

And it’s also Einstein’s birthday! Doubly good.

A country boy from Alabama is talking with his brother, home from college during Spring Break, and asks him what he learned in college.

His brother says "Ive learned some algebra". The boy says "Go ahead and speak me some algebra"

His brother replies "Pi R squared"

The boy yells "AHA....you ain't learned nothin'.....Pie are round....cornbread are square."

So this is a thing, now?

Pi is the sixteenth letter of the Greek alphabet, translated into English; and represents a quantity for which no one has the exact numerical value in the decimal system—only a quite precise one good enough for most calculations requiring the knowledge of just where the center of a circle is.
