    A little math

    A pie with radius Z and thickness A. What is the volume?















    Pi*Z*Z*A.

      Pi*Z*Z*A.

      Actually volumetrically speaking it would be the diameter D and thickness A determined by the crust, cheese, sauce, and pepperoni added, (or other goodies figured topographically). Then, variables to the outcome would be determined as to where it was obtained.

        Nope... Circumference is pi*D... Area (and therefore volume) begins with pi*R squared.

          A = 1/2" for thick crust pizza, A= 1/4" for thin crust pizza, A= 1" for chicago deep dish pizza.

            A = 0
            Z = 0

                No. Pie R round, cake R square.

                      I haven't eaten pizza for six months.

                      Now I crave it.

                      Thanks.

                        ... and you're actually still alive???

                        I didn't think that was humanly possible. Somebody phone Ripley's, quick.

                          I loves me some pizza. Pizza pizza pizza. Mmmm.

                          My appetite for pizza is exactly equivalent to the available quantity. I will eat however much is there. All of it. Don't get caught reaching for a slice when I'm ready - your hand will get smacked.

                          Unfortunately I ate too much. I'm an addict. I had to go cold turkey -literally. I have a turkey sandwich every day for lunch. It would be sad if I hadn't lost 15-20 lbs. I intend to lose another ~15 lbs by October 1. Then I will have a Papa John's The Works. With beer. Lots of pizza and lots of beer. Oh yeah.

                          I'm so weak.

                            JR, maybe it's the beer that's your problem...

                              I "cured" myself of pizza addiction in my mid-20's. I was single and I ate so much that now I can take it or leave it. It's fine and I like it, but I haven't craved it ever since.

                              After a couple of years I realized this so I tried to "cure" myself of my fried chicken addiction. No such luck. After eating buckets of KFC, Popeye's and Church's I still wanted more. Oh well, there's worse vices I guess.
