Wil Wheaton as the voice of Doctorow and Scalzi novels is one of the precious good things about this timeline.

I think I’ve discovered something unusual (and somewhat predictable) about the digits of Pi… I wouldn’t mind speaking to someone (could be a bug in my code)

I think this was a mistake. No one would read that page of pi. So why would someone want that read to them? It’s four minutes of uselessness.

Should have sampled zero through nine and had a computer calculate pi. Then he could recite it forever.

It’s so hard to top Hard 'N Phirm.

(Well, except for the hip hop break. With that included, it is easily topped by just about anything without a hip hop break.)

When does he get to the part where π expresses all of Shakespeare, in binary?

Me too. I just told my husband Wil was 47 and my husband said, “F- you.” (Hubby is 70 but that made him feel older!)
