thought Craig would like it.

Cute!

I have a book about pi which goes over all of the history, including
legislation which fixed it at 3. Quite a story.

Re: [MBZ] One for Craig

 Not exactly: https://wiki.lspace.org/mediawiki/Bergholt_Stuttley_Johnson
Specifically: Mail-sorting engine, the Post Office, Ankh-Morpork. Originally 
designed as yet another organ (musical instrument). Acquired by Postmaster 
General Cowerby. In the centre of this machine is one wheel that Johnson, for 
the sake of tidiness, had designed to have a pi (circumference to diameter 
ratio) of exactly 3, not 3.14-mumble-mumble-and-a-bit. In order for pi to be 
exactly 3, the universe has been changed. The machine therefore taps through 
many layers of the space-time continuum. Mail came out of the sorting machine 
that wasn't put into it by the human hands of the postal workers. Mail from 
next week, mail from 50 years in the future, mail that could have been, mail 
from alternative universes, mail that people swore they posted but really 
hadn't, mountains of such mail. Finally, Chief Postal Inspector Rumbelow beat 
up the machine so that it stopped whirring. No longer sorting any mail, the 
machine still sports an annoying blue glow, and is capable of Considerably 
Dis-Organizing objects placed above its centre. This makes one of the rooms in 
the cellars, originally the mail-sorting room, a dangerous place to be. A 
banshee assassin exploded when he touched the core of the device.
