It is Pi Day!
What is interesting about this day, especially 03.14.15? Because 2015 holds the most accurate Pi Day in the ENTIRE 21st CENTURY.

How Cool is that?
This will happen again in 2115!
Pi Day is an annual celebration commemorating the mathematical constant π (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14 (or 3/14 in the month/day date format), since 3, 1, and 4 are the first three significant digits of π in decimal form. In 2009, the United States House of Representatives supported the designation of Pi Day.[2]
Pi (π) is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Pi is a constant number, meaning that for all circles of any size, Pi will be the same.
The diameter of a circle is the distance from edge to edge, measuring straight through the center. The circumference of a circle is the distance around.
How will you celebrate? Eating Pie, of course!
