Hi Mike,

If I recall correctly, the forebears of the untelligent design crowd,
during the scopes monkey trial, attempted to mandate that pi was equal
to 22/7ths.  However, I don't see where faith attaches to 22 and 7 was
always a cabalistic device of the middle ages.

Close enough for as many as 3 would be.

I would hate to drive on their 13/14/15 inch tires tho'.   ;-)
