Somebody should immediately start planning an enormous Pi Day celebration for the year 2015. Starting at 9am.

Pi Day Celebration on 3/14/15 at 9 am.

So is the start of it 3/14 at 1:59?

I’ve been reading the pie recipes.

On the date mentioned in the movie for the awakening of the HAL computer in 2001, some of my nerdier friends got together with a birthday/memorial cake for HAL. They put wafers into the cake to represent his circuit boards, and at the end of the birthday part, slowly pulled out the wafers one by one as they sang “Daisy, Daisy…” more and more slowly. I wish I’d heard about it in time to go.
