True, true.

If we look past the inconvenient 2016 year, today “is” 3-14.

After 3:00 pm, it will be 3.1415.
At 3:55 pm, it will be 3.141592

BUT! At 15:55:35.529232556568 hours this afternoon - that is,
at 3:55:35.529232556568 seconds in the afternoon, it will be
3.141592653589793238 , rounding off a few millionths of a second.

Ah, but is that GMT or Lima? If it is celebrated as is New Year’s Day, then it would be local time.

I chose to treat the .159... as a fraction of the day making it occur at 03:49:20 give or take a few shakes of a cesium atom.

GMT? So it's at 10:55AM EDT?

(I just loved giving Mrs. Andrews the Algebra II teacher fits. It made us even somehow)

Today is my son’s 27th birthday. He has very high IQ so it fits that he was born on this day.

No, not National Pie Day. That's January 23.

Only the u.s. congress would be dumb enough to make national pie day on Jan 23.
