Three cheers for fundamental truth. Ironically, and very tellingly, it would be blasphemous to read a certain passage from the bible today.  |

When my son was in high school they had a Pi day. Kids were supposed to memorize Pi as far as
they could to win pizza Pi for the class. In 3 days he memorized it out to 300 or so digits, and won. He's now in college and surprise! - He's a math major. IIRC when I looked it up there are people that have memorized Pi to rediculous digits - like 10,000 |

Probably nothing; the floating point unit might have another error in the 5th decimal place, so they can't calculate Pi correctly anyway. (Little tongue-in-cheek humor for something that happened 10+ years ago) |
