My freshman physics professor always told me that 3 digits of resolution is all

rules, so 3 digits is all that you can resonably get, unless you want to make 
stuff up.

  Well, we are celebrating it today.  Plus, I am sure at some time in history, 
PI was defined as 3.12
  My dad taught me it was 22/7
