Ed.. the nonsense isn't in this description from a Jewish History.
Book... the nonsense is that some (Cliff for one) have said that this
verse and a chapter in another book with a few more details.. state
the PI equals 3.00 because a round bowl, etc cannot be made with an
outside diameter of 10 units and have an outside circumference of 30
units... Well.. I have a bowl that has an OD of 10 inches and an
outside circumference of 30 inches.... And I was hoping Cliff would
enlighten us as to how this is possible.. or just state that it is not
possible.. I mean he does have a degree in physics, etc..and
shouldn't this be child's play to him?





Just out of curiosity, You have given the major diameter of the ellipse. What
is the minor diameter?
