I Am An Impressive Geek    -Saturday, February 07, 2004   -6:47 pm-

For oh so many reasons. First of all, because I thought it would be amusing to take the quiz below. Then, because I knew what the answer meant. Finally, because I as I was pasting the html into my post, I noticed it used a table to lay out the answer and re-wrote the answer form to use good HTML4.01Strict/CSS1 code. It's now half as long and will render correctly in any browser I care about.

What Irrational Number Are You?

You are φ

Of all the irrational numbers, you are considered to be the most beautiful. Those who know you well have called you by many names, all golden. However, most people don't know you by name and probably won't even recognize you by sight, but they do like to see you. Despite your pretty face, you are by no means shallow. You are involved it many things: finance, biology, architecture, art, music, and much more.

In some ways you and e are a nearly perfect match. The power and intensity of e excites you.

Your lucky number is approximately 1.61803399
