not that much. but a program was JUSt on TV about a savant( a non-idiot savant) who cited pi to the 200,000th place by memory and learned theIcelandic language (said to be among the world's most difficult) in a week.
not to say you haven't done better than i could, but that kid was astounding!!! ironic you should ask that just now.
yes, you, above me! "brainman". perhaps it was 22,000 places, but i'm not sure that's up to date. it took six hours but he cited it flawlessly.

You're a lot farther than me.
There's a guy named Daniel Tammet, aka "Brain Man" who holds the world record:

4 rounded as 3.1416 will give accuracy enough for me.
