Pi Day was dreamed up 27 years ago to celebrate 3.14 on 3/14, but this year the geek dial is being turned up to 15 — as in 3/14/15. And this'll be the only year until 2115 that you can turn the dial up to the max, at 3/14/15, 9:26:53, an exact match for pi's first 10 digits.
Wacky or wise?
That relativistic twist
in pi may sound wacky, but it's particularly apt this year — because
3/14 also marks Albert Einstein's birthday, and 2015 marks the 100th anniversary of his general relativity theory. (I thought it was a cool tidbit of information!)
We also partook in some Pizza Pi for dinner as well.
