Tim:
I was always under the impression that pi was merely the ratio of the circumference to the diameter, something that's easy enough to prove empirically (measure the two, and do the maths).

Hey Tim, didn't you read a hidden ROTFLMAO between the lines above? :-D
Well, somewhere along the line I suspect there's a bit of "that guy was nuts" in the reasoning for referring to him. But you're never quite sure, when someone refers to something like that, if they were taking him seriously.
You didn't notice a "you've got to be kidding?" hidden in my first paragraph? ;-)
I read a fair bit of what was on that site, but my eyes glazed over rather rapidly. It was like proving a banana by discussing elephants.
