Apple Pie, Pumpkin Pie, Pizza Pie, and 3.1415926535....... Ask Daniel Tammet; he holds the world record for reciting Pi to 22,514 decimal places in 5 hours and 9 minutes at Pi Day 2004. (He has AS, savant syndrome, and synesthesia :D .)

The record is 100,000 set by some other savant guy (not sure if he's autistic) but Daniel Tammet is VERY COOL! I wanna get his book actually.

I guess you'd start at 3pm, but past that, it just doesn't 'work right'...;)

I didn't know there was a Pi day. When I was a kid I daydreamed about making a pie shaped like the pi symbol, though, and also making pies shaped like the numbers 3.14...etc. and putting them all together in order.

Oh rats! I missed Pi Day AGAIN!! !

I even have a pie dish with the digits of Pi all around the edge and a big pi symbol in the middle. Yesterday would have been a great day to make a pie.

Darn. :cry:
