Two cheers for the real Pi Day

It’s blasphemous for a math teacher to say, I know, but as noted previously I think “Pi Day” is overrated. That would be the March 14 Pi Day.

Most of the world reads dates with the day in front of the month (22/7, not 7/22), and since 22/7 is actually closer to pi than 3.14 is, it stands to reason if we’re going to stoop to celebrating that irrational constant it should be today rather than in March.

Happy Real Pi Day, everyone!
