If someone asks you for your favorite number and you can't make up your mind, tell 'em 2.254596.... because it's the geometric mean of π and Φ. (I use φ for the "little" golden ratio 0.6180339....)

6 pi^5 = 1836.11810871... is not close to the reciprocal of the fine structure constant: that's roughly 137. It's close to the ratio of the proton mass to the electron mass, which is about 1836.15267.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton-to-electron_mass_ratio …

You bet! But it's been dry here. I'm looking forward to a big thunderstorm. When things are going well, there's one almost every afternoon in the late summer. It's part of the tropical fun.
