Please excuse the simple math and spelling errors. You shouldn't believe anything I say without double-checking even at the best of times.

Love this. Bob Palais (referenced at 4:53) was my very first math professor in college. Very nice and goofy guy. Made sure to tell us about pi being wrong. Good stuff.

Why can't we use Eta as 1/2 Pi? I mean its already 1/4 Tau and and wouldn't most equations would be even simpler with that? Just less fractions to deal with

My Algebra 2 teacher taught us radians and triginometry without even acknowledging the existence of tau. I want to smack him.
