HAPPY SQUARE ROOT DAY!!

Mar 03, 2009 09:47



Square root day is a humorous holiday celebrated on dates where the day and the month are both the square root of the last two digits in the current year.[1] For example, the last square root day was March 3, 2009 (3/3/09), and the next square root day will be April 4, 2016 (4/4/16). The final square root day of the century will occur on September 9, 2081. Square root days fall upon the same nine dates each century.

Ron Gordon, a Redwood City, California high school teacher, first created the day for 9/9/81. Gordon is the official public relations person and sends news releases to world media outlets[2]. In addition, his daughter has got in on the act and set up a Facebook page for people to share how they were celebrating the day[3].

So take some carrots or some radishes and make them square shaped for today!!
