A very happy 125th birthday, Albert Einstein!
It's still 3.13 buddy :P

I still say that's not a coincidence. Pie was invented to be ~3.14 because it suited Einstein's birthday :)
Happy Pi Day :)
hmm, it will be more interesting in 2016 when it's 3/14/16. Better yet in 1593 when it was 3/14/1593

2016?
Doesn't it go something like: "pi pi pi, 3 point 1 4 1 5 9, pi pi pi, 2 6 5 3 5 8 9"?
It's called rounding up :)
I call it rounding off, but same deal.
I prefer the simpsons one, "1 plus 1 plus 3 is five, here are the digits that make up pie, 3 . 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5 3 5 7......"
Now I have memorized Pi to 31 digits.
we had a little celebration on monday in my math class. we got to eat pie, it was good

Nice! Math teachers who celebrate this holiday rock.
We celebrated by eating cake... because I was in the class with all the people that failed pi=C/2r.
Cake on Pi Day is a mortal sin.
But the cake's circumerance is still 2pi ;)
