No more pie? I have to say i'm pretty convinced.
In mathematics, tau (τ) is a constant which has been proposed by Bob Palais, Peter Harremoes, Hermann Laurent, Fred Hoyle, Michael Hartl, and others,[1][2][3][4] as a replacement for the familiar circle-constant π. Their main reason is that circles are more naturally defined by their radius than by their diameter.[5] The value τ = 2π, or approximately 6.28,[6] occurs very frequently in mathematics.
