Chuckle.  I was just reading a plea from a math type that we need a new 
symbol because pi is wrong, everyplace it is used except for circumference, 
it has to be used as 2pi, so there is a move afoot to define a new 'tau' as 
being equal to 2pi, suggesting its symbol to be a 3 legged pi symbol.  Sure 
gets rid of all those 2pi's in the math.  I doubt it will catch on though.

Cheers, Gene
