AMERICAN PI

Consistent with my nine word blog profile, let me share a very short article that appeared in the Huffington Post this week.

The U.S. population has reached a nerdy and delightful milestone.

Shortly after 2:29 p.m. on Tuesday, August 14, 2012, the U.S. population was exactly 314,159,265, or pi (π) times 100 million, the U.S. Census Bureau reports. The U.S. Census Bureau's Population Clock projects the real-time size of the U.S. population based on monthly population estimates.

Wonder if I should notify the folks at Huffington when my car reaches pi times 100,000 kilometres?
