The blog post referenced by this article (http://nbickford.wordpress.com/2010/10/22/pi/) is amazing. It's not just the math and not just the C# code; he throws in all sorts of offhand references to a paper here, a record-holder there, a plot point of Carl Sagan's Contact... the kinds of things that most people accumulate over many years. While this isn't high-level mathematics, if I'd read the post without seeing the Wolfram story, I'd have guessed the author to be a 30+ year old enthusiast.
