Cassis Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 There was a bloke interviewed on the radio this morning, an American, who has the record for memorising it to the most decimal places. About 12,500 places. How useful and entertaining. [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Smith Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I thought Pi day was 22/7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted March 15, 2007 Author Share Posted March 15, 2007 Only approximately........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Pi = 3.141593 (to 6 dec. places)Difference between pi and 22/7 = 0.001264Difference between pi and 3.14 = 0.001593So 22/7 is a teeny smidge closer to pi than is 3.14.

Teamedup Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 We we ended up having a Happy Pie Day yesterday, I made a chicken and mushroom pie and it was delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I LOVE chicken and mushroom pie. My favourite after steak and kidney, shortly followed by corned beef and potato pie, then ham and egg pie. Then beef and mushroom pie. Then a long line of quiches. But not all in one sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Head Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I love Pi! Without it hoppus tables would be non existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 We had a pie the other day which was a speciality of a region in l'Indre, it was meat, tasted like sausage mixed with mince and hard boiled egg. Very nice it was too. For some reason my friends here thought that I would be tasting something very unusual and very special. They thought it very funny that we found it tres brittanique.I love pies. I made some chicken and mushroom pies for a do we were going to and one of the bloke was wandering round telling everyone that the torte I had made was riz de veau and excellent. Sometimes I wonder about people. Who would make a pie with riz de veau? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCanary Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I made a steak pie recently. The steak just melted in the mouth, as did the mushrooms, onion and garlic. And the hint of red wine just completed the experience.My wife said the pie was great. My son said he loved it too, but suggested that the next time I make it, I ought to do it without the crust!

MrCanary Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Assuming you are a teacher Dick, have you thought of punishing the school cook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Cook! If there was one...Assembler of pre-ruined ingredients, more like.Flogging would be too good for them. Seriously, the food is a disgrace, and it's no wonder that so many British kids grow up knowing nothing about good food or how to eat it. All down to cost and which company kicks back best.

RumziGal Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Sounds no worse than my son's collège cantine! AND it costs over 3 euros a day! [:)]Anyway, the young lady with whom I share a house here in Englandshire, she spent a year in a school in France because her dad went over there to work for a year. She said she couldn't eat chips/fries for many years after that, because the choice of accompaniment at school dinner was always fries or squashy ratatouille. So she had fries almost every day for a year, because the ratatouille was like slimy innards.Quite funny really, what a "taste of France" can do to people. She has not the slightest desire to go back there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
