Not pie, but the Transcendent Number which makes the Universe go round!

You can find strings or sequences in the first 4 billion binary places (that's like a decimal place, but to the base 2... oh, never mind*).

For example, "mudcat" is found at index 1475296189, or a little under 40% along the chain. "Dylan" is found at 35892772, but "Keinstein" isn't found at all :(.

It's believed that pi is "normal"- that is, it contains ALL possible sequences of all binary digits- that is ALL information in all books, all our PINs and bank account details, the date of your birth, the date of your death, a complete MP3 of every song ever written and every song which will never be written, your DNA sequence, and the date of the death of the last living organism on Earth. All you have to do is know where to look, and sadly I'm not in the first 4 billion places.
