The Calculation for Pi is universal. No matter which unit of measurement you use, the same result will be 3.1415926..... THAT is fantastic.

Are Pi's a minority? If so we can assume Chuck Shumer is working on a national holiday for them. Which is the way it should be! I'll bet people who don't love Pi are all racists!

sorry...got carried away...

Psst,It's also Steak Day and Blow Job Day but perhaps not getting carried away on either subject preferable

Well the world would definitely be a happier place if every man started his day that way....and Miss Lewinsky did have a healthy set of lips on her.Funny how Steak was ignored.....typical,at least from what I recall breakfast could always wait...

In my opinion it's not really nerdy it's just not something I would celebrate and i treat it as a regular day because there's not a huge life changing meaning to it..

Hard to choose since "awesome" and "nerdy" are like the same thing to me.

It's also White Day in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China, the day where the boys give chocolate back to the girls who gave them chocolate on Valentine's Day.

The fact that you can take a circle and divide its area by it's circumference and get a number that never ends.....................It's awesome!!

The truth is that Pi Day only happened once, but remains a holiday constant that never repeats itself. Therefore, Pi Day... is every day.

Pi is ok.

It's another 216 digit number that's driving me insane.

It's traced back to Julius Caesar. Good thing, too. The next day, March 15th, didn't turn out great for him.....
