Let it load up a nice big amount, disfocus a little and then click and hold on the down scroll button.

What do you see.

Now if only Roald Dahl had known about this, those credits would have been more interesting...

A t-shirt of infinite length and complexity...

Good for sleeping in, bad for clubbing and the gravitational stability of the Earth.

But it would be such a damn cool shirt! What if your shirt, instead of being of infinite length was instead of finite length. When you purchased your shirt, you could trigger it to the "on" or "calculate pi" (a la) mode and the number would start appearing on your shirt, '3' first, filling the whole space of the fromt of the short, then '.' behind the oversized three, then '1' which would become the largest number, and the '3.' would shrink in size. The '4' would become the largest number, causing the '3.' to shrink smaller again, and the '1' to become slightly smaller as well. Perhaps some of you can see where this is going: as each number in the sequence is calculated all the preceding numbers become slightly smaller in size, and since we can half the size of those numbers infinitely, we can spill as much pi as we want on our typical size shirt.

I would say kinda' cool for clubbing--especially if you could get the numbers displayed in disco style glitter colours!
