Okay, not to break your ∏ day merriment, but it kinda bugs me that people call March 14 ∏ day simply because of an accident of numbers. Pi is the constant relationship of the circumference of a circle to the diameter of the same circle. The year can be thought of as a circle consisting of roughly 365.25 days. The circumference of that circle would be roughly 116.26 days. Therefore ∏ day should really be April 26 (or April 25 in leap years) since its the 116th day of the year. Specifically at 6:18 a.m.
