A peer review

I've reviewed Geo's post at
 http://trainrideoftheenigmas.blogspot.com/2015/03/pi-day.html

One of the conditions of peer-reviewing is to recommend that the article either be:
  • to unconditionally accept the manuscript or the proposal,
  • to accept it in the event that its authors improve it in certain ways,
  • to reject it, but encourage revision and invite resubmission,
  • to reject it outright.
I'm recommending that Geos' article be accepted, if, and it's a big if, he can furnish photo's of the mentioned ride with the three worthy's....a Putin-like photo of Kepler would be best....shirt off, etc.

To celebrate, here's a pi:

    Excellent solution to the transcendent surd. The cosmos is expanded by it. But I hope you understand this culinary construct leaves us face to face with an even greater mystery. We must now endeavor as a species to solve the whole enchilada.

    Ah wordplay. Both Geo. and Mike appear to be masters at it. Or, perhaps, master baiters.

    Wife of Pi commented recently that he's irrational and goes on and on.

    Favorite pi joke:

    Wife of pi to the marriage counselor: 'He's irrational and he just keeps going on and on'

    That looks like good pi. I think it would look even better with a big chicken-sized wedge cut out of it

      You may have an Avagadro's-size slice, Chicken. 6.022 cm wide at the edge.
