Pi Day?

Pi day was March 14.  So what is pi?  Our poll asked that question. The votes were all 100% correct. Pi is a number unique to circles. The first few digits of pi are 3.14159...Thus pi day on March 14. (3/14)  The history of pi goes back millenniums.  Pi is used to figure out the circumference of circles, areas and more.  Pi has been calculated out to millions of digits without ever repeating.  Get in on the fun next year and get a slice of pi!
