Hm. I had wondered which of you and Inui would post about this first. ^_^

bitsandfluids March 15 2008, 02:05:04 UTC

I beat them both. ^_^

It's Einstein's birthday, too.

Of course, wishing people happy pi day at Hogwarts just gets you funny looks, but I fully approve of a nod to the universe's mysteries from time to time.

Ah, so it is.

Hogwarts? Is that the school you attend?

Yes, marveling over the universe's mysteries is quite enjoying.

kindacanidae March 15 2008, 19:14:44 UTC

Yep.

Hmm, it is! Especially when mud or surf are involved somehow.

You don't understand, I assume.

Pi day? A day to celebrate...the number?

ikanai_da March 15 2008, 20:03:43 UTC

Yes, Hiroshi. A day to celebrate the wonderful number that is known as "pi".

I've been thinking...we should have an "e" day for Euler's Number (which would be on February 7th) and a "Golden" day for the Golden Ratio (which would be on January 6th). What do you say?
