FWIW (not much), I knew a guy from Greece who insisted that letter was pronounced "pee"! So, Happy Pee Day, y'all!

Did this day have special significance in the USA in 2015? 3.14.15?

Isn't every day pee day?

I don't think "Pi" is pronounced differently in other countries, even if they pronounce "i" as "ee."

I'm sure that 3-14-15 was something special.

Yeah, great. My birthday was the other day, and the day before, a crown fell off, then on my birthday I got my taxes done. Happy-freakin'-birthday, yeah.

Then, to make matters worse, while I was eating dinner tonite, I swallowed my crown. !#@%$^%&^*(!

That's ridiculous! "Pee are squared?"

EDIT: Ridiculous, but true.

I wasn't born in the USA so I grew up learning pee not pie. There may be some formula with the pi squared but I haven't seen it. It's generally something else squared times the pi.

Area of a circle = pi X r squared. That always stuck in my head.

and it's the radius (r ) that is squared not the pi.

Oh, no need to get long in the tooth about it. It'll all work out in the end.

Pronounce it however you want to. It's still pi, not pee.
