    That isn't all of pi. Pi is a never ending number. And what makes it even more strange is that there is no pattern either. Usually never ending numbers are like 5.333333 (3 repeats forever) or 5.395395395395 (395 repeats forever).


    A friend of mine has the first 150 digits memorized, and what is even more amazing is that he can recite them drunk!!!

    Well, actually I heard that PI is NOT an infinite number, only that we don't (until recently) had the power to calculate all of it. I haven't checked up on it myself, so I dunno. But what you say is what I took for the truth when I was studying at least

    And to be honest, I don't really give a damn (have absolutely no use for a PI of that extreme accuracy), I just tought it was a fun domain name =)
