I have a customized home page on google.com/news with, of course, a section on news aboutt 'mathematics'. I find it odd that I missed
this news item about Pi.
A computer scientist claims to have computed the mathematical constant pi to nearly 2.7 trillion digits, some 123 billion more than the previous record.
Odd, the item did contain the word 'mathematics' and there hasn't been any other major news pushing the item down on the list. ( Items can stay on the list for weeks ). Maybe I trusted Google a bit too much in providing me with -all- the news throught their excellent google news service.
