Original and fun solve.#4: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 20, 2013
I enjoyed the solve. But I am not sure I "get it." Could you elaborate please, Brian.#5: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jan 20, 2013 [SPOILER]
The horizontal clues should look familiar and it is no coincidence they make a circle.#6: Julianna (JuliClarinet2) on Jan 20, 2013 [HINT] [SPOILER]
Pi! Brilliant!#7: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jan 20, 2013 [SPOILER]
I just realized that if you use the peek at solution feature you don't get the clues. That won't help at all.#8: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 20, 2013 #9: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 20, 2013
Truly amazing.#10: Jota (jota) on Jan 21, 2013

Thanks Julianna! I was too dense I guess.#11: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 21, 2013
Oh! Very cool, Brian!#12: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Jan 22, 2013 [SPOILER]
Say it with me, kids: if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.#13: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jan 23, 2013 [SPOILER]
On a more apropos note, here's a lovely ditty by Kate Bush that has some similarly familiar lyrics:

(Skip to 1:49 if you want to go straight to the digits. She continues the string at later points, but I don't feel like listening to all 9 minutes just to note the times) :)
For the math nerds among us, a diatribe on why pi's wrong:#14: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Jan 23, 2013

(Wrong not mathematically, but conceptually.)
I am on board Joe. I'll have to remember to celebrate tau day. Maybe I should make a new puzzle.#15: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Jan 24, 2013
That was a beautiful video.#16: Jan Wolter (jan) on Sep 18, 2013
Here's a counter-diatribe about why pi is wrong, but tau is wrong too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qpVdwizdvI#17: Gary Webster (glwebste) on Mar 9, 2018
And this one argues that pi is right after all: http://www.thepimanifesto.com/
What Tom said. Wow. Brilliant!#18: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Mar 9, 2018

I made almost the same puzzle a year later having forgotten this one, I guess. Puzzle #23747.
