Wow, thanks for sharing. Hopefully I'll remember that! I like this poem too: There once was a man from Nantucket Whose D was so long he could S it He said with a grin, as he wiped his chin "If my ear was a C i'd F it"

If you memorize that poem, and then count the letters in each word, it comes out to pi to 20 digits.
