Surely you knew that today (3.14) was Pi Day. March 14th is a special day for those fans of Pi. It is a cause for celebration:

“There are logical gathering places for people like this, and one of them is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where, on March 14, students have been known to wish each other — out loud — a happy Pi Day.

The school plays a role in encouraging this: In the past it has tried to mail its acceptance letters on March 14. (It didn’t work out this year. And last year, when an MIT official wrote on an admissions blog that it probably wouldn’t work out then either, he was greeted with disappointment. “Pi Day seems so romantic,” one prospective student wrote.)”

And Pi Day is also Albert Einstein’s birthday. Now how totally cool is that?!

I want to give a personal wave to Cory, a regular member of the online security community. Of course, you guessed it. Cory’s nickname is “Pi”.
