Survey -( tangent)

I can't keep up, but a Japanese man memorized it out to 10,000 places, then beat his own record and got 40,000 places. I wonder if he remembers to take out the garbage before going to work.

It seems that everyone has there own tips for memorizing Pi. I find it
easiest to divide Pi into 50 numbers in a section. This is how I am able to
do it:

3 . 14159265358979323 - I still remember this much from age 16.
8 - I just ate.
46264 - COOL mirror image number.
33 - Rhyms with tree-tree? (This speeellin of 'rhym' doesn't look right be
the spelling checker okayed it.)
832 - This is a popular dialing prefix in my area.
795 - My dad used to have a post office box with this number.
0288 - I like numbers that start with zero.
4 - How many digits are in the following year?
1971 - I didn't like the 70's. (In general that is.)
69 - Two years earlier. (First year of CV joints on Volkswagen Beetles.)
3993 - A cool mirror image number.
7510 - Last number in this section

5820 - the first two digit are the 7 & 5 of the last section reversed + 1.
974 - A Futuristic Porsche style?
944 - A Present day Porsche style!!
5923 - Kind of related to the number before the Porsches.
0781 - First number I like in this section.
640 - Popular computer graphic screen width.
628 - What is the 40 above in hex? (28!)
620 - What is the 40 above divided by 2? (20!)
8998 - Cool mirror image number.
628 - This is the middle 600 number above repeated.
0348 - Other number I like in this section.
2 - How many digits follow?

Given that EPICOR really likes their suggestion database and that they
believe it is highly effective ...

How do all of you feel ?

Please respond with a just a number - NO other editorial comments please.
I'd like to get some feedback without starting a flame.

So:

0 = You are totally disgusted
5 = You are neutral - you neither love it or hate it
10 = You are totally delighted

Of course, you may respond with any value between these extremes.

The impression I have received from EPICOR employees is that they would
score the suggestion program in the 8-9 range and find it a very useful
tool.

Please be honest and fair about this.

Why would anyone need 212GB of RAM?

to calculate pi to 51.5 billion decimal digits, of course.
