=============================
Amaze your friends at parties by telling them the value of Pi to the first 20 decimal places.
Use the number of letters in each word of the poem to come up with the value.
How I wish I could determine pi.
"Eureka," cried the great inventor.
"Christmas pudding, Christmas pie.
Is the problem's very center."

I just use 355/113.
This works, even on a calculator without a pi key. Multiplied by the circumference of the Earth, the difference between this value and pi would be thirty-five feet.
Close enough for government work.
