>"Pi is three to one dB! Actually, it's much closer than that. But is pi an 'energy' quantity or a 'field' quantity (or one of the rare things that attracts a multiplier other than 10 or 20)? Pi is equal to 3, within a tiny bit over 0.4 dB, if it's a 'field' quantity. And e is equal to 2*sqrt(2), within 4%, or 8.7 dB if it's a field quantity. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
