I was absolutely mesmerised by this story. Kind of reminds of the vignettes aired on This American Life, though I'm pretty sure that "Craziest" is a work of fiction.

Planning a fishing trip to your favorite trout stream? Check out the current waater levels...

Thanks LabRat.

There's a station less than a half mile downstream from my house. It shows that Tuesday night the creek jumped from 3 ft depth and 50 cubic ft/sec to over 16 feet and 10,000 ft/sec. So that's why the road was closed Wed morning.

Find your phone number sequence in pi!

[your number] found starting at position 39905418 to the right of the decimal point.

(I was originally going to post my results, but then realized that probably wasn't too good of an idea, in the event that anyone was actually obsessive compulsive enough to try to find me. I don't live all that close to that police station ...)

Yeah, but what if someone is obsessive/compulsive enough to count all the way over to that position? Wouldn't they worry you all that much more?

Here's bizarre! It misses off the 3 at the beginning of Pi. If your phone number is 3141592, far from telling you your number is found right at the front of Pi, it finds it starting 25198140 from the decimal point.

Happy Monkey · 10-13-2004, 05:08 PM

I guess they figured if your phone number is 3141592, you can find it yourself.

Some seriously funny stuff, here...and it is apparently all the real deal.

I'll probably figure out what I was just hypnotized into doing in the worst possible moment..........at least I won't be alone. Or maybe I'll just want my eggs suuny side up from now on....
