      I see what you did there! Nice!

      Actually, today's Pi day is extra special, particularly at 9.24.53 am this morning, because the value of Pi is 3.141592653 which translates to 3/14/15 9:26:53 on the calendar/clock.

          3/14/15 9:26:53 Less rounding

          They must have had an awesome party on 3/14/1592 which is the only PI day for the purists.

                Europeans (and some others, I forget who) cannot celebrate Pi Day because 3/14 is the 3rd day of the 14th month, and therefore it won't be coming around for awhile, as near as I've been able to determine.

                  About the same time as 31 April, would be my guess...
