From Wikipedia:

In the year 2015, Pi Day will have special significance on 3/14/15 at 9:26:53 a.m. and p.m., with the date and time representing the first 10 digits of π. That same second will also contain a precise instant corresponding to all of the digits of π. However, some argue that 9:26:54 a.m. and p.m. on 3/14/15 are more accurate because of the 11th digit of π being 5, which would cause the 10th digit to round up to 4.

A sequential time will occur on 3/14/15 at 9:26:53.58979... following the sequence of pi to all digits.

I'm celebrating by being a geek at a Code Camp, and of course, having some pie with dinner.

Are you celebrating this Super Pi Day? If so, how?
