Out of the Blue

Forget pi day, today is apparently Tau Day, the annual celebration of the circle constant τ = 6.283185. Scientific American also argues is the most mathematically perfect day of the year. Here's a bit on why: "June 28 is a perfect date because 6 and 28 are both perfect numbers, numbers whose divisors add up to themselves. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 are the three divisors of 6 (other than 6 itself) and 1+2+3=6. Likewise, 28=1+2+4+7+14."
