    Default Happy Pi moment!

    In the year 2015, Pi Day had special significance on 3/14/15 at 9:26:53 a.m. and will have some at p.m., with the date and time representing the first 10 digits of π.That same second will also contain a precise instant corresponding to all of the digits ofπ.

    I remember back in 1978, the time and date was 12:34 5/6/78.

    I'm old.

    But I still like math!

    An opinion without 3.14 is just an onion...
    Quote: "There is a theory which states that if ever, for any reason, anyone discovers what exactly the Universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another that states that this has already happened.”... Douglas Adams 1952 - 2001
