3/14 is π day, as in the month and day form the first three digits of the decimal representation of pi (3.1415926 and so on), the ratio between the diameter and circumference of a circle (and much more). And not only that, this year is 2015 so tomorrow's date will form not just the first three digits, but five! 3/14/15.

How are Atlasians celebrating this once in a century event? Please tell me you're at least going to have pie! (if you're waiting for tau day instead, that's also acceptable)

I for one, am making sure to wake up for 9:26 so I can live the moment where even the seconds add to pi's decimal representation, and arbitrarily more if one is including milliseconds, and so on.
Both today and tomorrow, I am giving out free pie slices at my university to university students and visitors.
