Pi

Not only is it the eve of the Ides of March as well as being Saturday, as well as Caturday, but today is also Pi Day.  The digits for today are 3.14 — the value of pi. If you’d like to celebrate with a couple of more significant digits, wait until 1500 hours (if that time hasn’t already passed for you), when it will then be 3.14 15.  If you don’t know about pi (and you should), go over here and read about it.

My friend Ken Carpenter pointed out that early this morning, at 1:59 a.m. we reached the significant digits as well.

So, geek out.  Celebrate pi day by having pizza or cherry pie or some other round pie-ish foodstuff.

Happy Pi Day!
