Pi to a million places

Douglas Coupland is right - I really did find my phone number in the first million digits of Pi. And my old one, and my parents' and my mobile number and my date of birth. Give it a try on this super-wacky website URL - search your phone number without the area code, just the six or seven digit number.

According to Douglas' novel JPod (top website, too) you have more chance of winning the lottery than finding your phone number complete with area code in the first 100k digits of Pi.
