RyanJ Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Happy Pi day one and all... Isn't it strange that it comes on Einsteins birthay and its first digts are 3,1,4? (March = 3, Day = 14) http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2006-3-14&e=16&c=1 Cheers, Ryan Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanJ Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 I can't wait for a Brit to come on and say "no, the date is really 14/3, you weird Americans." I'm from the UK - I don't care what date format is used as long as its the correct date... Seems to me the last real Pi day was 3-14-1592 and the next won't be until 3-14-15926 If anyone is still here for the next real Pi Day one post at 5:35 AM I shall add it to my to do list but don't hold your breath for a reply Cheers, Ryan Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other student and threw large parts of it around the room and made a real big mess. We have an awesome teacher though and we were all laughing. She did make them clean it up. It was awesome.

Illuminati Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 By the way, and a little off the road. Has anyone seen the movie Pi: Faith in Chaos? It's very very interesting and very good. A little weird and is an independent film, but I'd deffinately recommend everyone watch it. I certainly enjoyed it. Seeing as I cannot stand star powered movies, this was right up my alley so to speak. But definately check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
