By the way, I don't think that any state legislature mandates that
pi be 3. It may have been proposed in a few legislatures by folks
who didn't have enough to do, but I don't think it is on the books
anywhere.
If you want to really make your point you could talk about states
that make the teaching of biology very difficult by their statute
law. Most of the statutes are not enforced but many of them are
still on the books. WBN
