I had a math teacher in grammar school who thought pi=22/7 exactly. He was within a percent, but it's not exactly. Another teacher, of English, thought that the definition of a sentence, being a "complete thought", could be used as a test to see if a bunch of words strung together was really a sentence or not. This was 45 years ago, seems the schools back then were just as bad as today's...

Oh, and all those teachers hated TV.
