Tell us something.: Hi Nano. I was somewhat active on the Chiffboards maybe 5 or 6 years ago, participating in several whistle tours (Bracker, Hardy, Ellis). I took a break from the Chiffboards, and music mostly, for several years because I got a full-time job and had a baby. I'm easing back into the music, though (which is great, I missed it). It's good to be back!

Yup! Got the t-shirt and the first 15 decimal places memorized. :party:

I co-teach high school math, and you miss out on the exasperated looks from students on a Saturday. I'll spread pi cheer to the plumber and maybe some unsuspecting neighborhood kids.

I gets better. This morning at 9:26 am it was 3/14/15 9:26. That's seven decimal places. And for a second, at 9:26:53 you had 9 decimal places. Whooohooo!

If you don't do the 24 hour clock thing you get another chance this evening. We'll be having pizza pi at that time.

We're preparing meat pi (pasties) and an apple pi for dinner too.

Of course there's a song:

Mathematical Pi
Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur. (Anything is more impressive if you say it in Latin)

Of course. And there's not just one song. Pi songs are like an entire genre.
