It’s national Pi Day . . . as in 3.14, because it’s March 14th.  But a recent poll found a third of Americans don’t know what “pi” is.  Some just have a vague notion it has something to do with math.

19% said they had no idea what pi is . . . 3% thought it was the hypotenuse of a triangle . . . 2% said angles in a parallelogram . . . 1% said the volume of water . . . and 7% thought it was the “mass of a pie,” spelled P-I-E.  (???)

Two-thirds knew the correct answer:  It’s the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter.  It’s used it all areas of math and physics to calculate stuff.

But here’s what you really care about:  As always, a bunch of places have deals on PIZZA and ACTUAL pies today.  Here are a few you might want to check out . . .
