    I gotta win this one.

    I come with Pi...

    To how many decimals? I need to know before I cast my vote.

    memorised to 100.

    I had five minutes to wait for a train and was a little bored so I thought "might as well..."*

    * That's a lie.

    Sorry, I just really wanted to win**

    **I'm not actually sorry. Sorry.

    Ive read the entire A Song of Ice & Fire saga......and I have a printed out map of Westeros

    How is dances with dragons? Only one I haven't read yet.

    Much better than Crows, which I had to force myself to finish

    Crows was painful....I had to do the last half via books on tape.

    Can we self-nominate? I have serious geek credentials.
    For instance, right now, I'm working on solving a problem using a zero inflated negative binomial regression using Stata.

    I win.:wink:
