While we're here, can I just get a quick show of hands?
How many of you hated hated hated the movie π?
Now keep your hands up if you had acquaintances who were convinced you would like it..
And bonus points for you if your hand is still up and folks told you that you looked like the main character..
Okay, thanks, y'all. I'm going back to thinking up numbers to put into Pi Search now..

I'm sure this guy cares:
Tammet holds the European record for remembering and recounting pi, recounting it to its 22,514th digit in just over 5 hours.
