the movie, Pi,

the life of..
We saw it a while back. It is fantastic, and I thought
well acted. You may wish to pay close attention to

Suresh Kumar Sharma from India has the official record for counting pi decimals.
70 030 decimals took 17 hours and 14 minutes to rattle off at the end of October last year.

Jonas von Essen from Sweden succeded with 13,208 decimal places in the right order today.
He is aiming for 100 000 next year:)
