This looks like an incredible memory feat, but is actually a simple mathematical feat you can do yourself!
Many of you know how I love memorizing Pi. For those who don't know, the fact that I started the Grey Matters blog on Pi Day (3/14), and the 400 Digits of Pi section of the Grey Matters Store should be enough evidence. That's why I'm glad to see at least one young child, known here as only Elliott, getting a good start in his early years. He looks like he's barely starting elementary school, but he's able to recall 30 digits of Pi already!
The birth of a child should be the happiest moment in a couple's life. But when a doctor's wife has twins, one of whom has Down syndrome, he makes the difficult decision to send one away. A nurse discovers his plan and intervenes, putting into motion events that will haunt the family for twenty years. Premieres Sat April 12 at 9pm EST.
