Person of interest - It's all in there somewhere

"And this is just the beginning. ...
.... It's all in there somewhere.  "
Primul episod in care personajul John Reese (Jim Caviezel ) aproape lipseste  - Person of interest - Season 2 ep 11 - 2 Pi R - mi se pare unul dintre cele mai spectaculoase (sic!). Si asta datorita celuilalt personaj principal Harold Finch (Michael Emerson).
O discutie intre Mr. Finch, deghizat ca un profesor suplinitor - Mr. Switft (sic!) -  si elevii sai mi se pare cel mai interesant text de pana acum din serial. La ce e buna matematica (numarul PI) si unde ne va folosi? -  intreaba o tanara si cocheta domnisoara. Mr. Switft va explica metaforic ... cititi si revin.

Mr. Swift
Pi.
Can any of you tell me what it means?
I'll settle for an intelligent question here.

"What is any of this good for, and when would we ever use it?"
Student
My friend has a question, Mr. Swift. "What is any of this good for, and when would we ever use it?"
 
Mr. Swift
Let me show you.
Pi.
The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
And this is just the beginning. It keeps on going. Forever.Without ever repeating.
Which means that contained within this string of decimals is every single other number. Your birth date, combination to your locker, your social security number. It's all in there somewhere.
And if you convert these decimals into letters, you would have every word that ever exist in every possible combination. The first syllable you spoke as a baby, the name of your latest crush, your entire life story from beginning to end.
Everything we ever say or do... All of the world's infinite possibilities rest within this one simple circle.

"...Well, that would be up to you."
Now what you do with that information...
What it's good for...
Well, that would be up to you.

 ... Mr. Switft va explica metaforic ca in matematica se poate regasi orice a existat si va exista - It's all in there somewhere . Ce facem cu acea informatie ... asta nu mai e problema matematicii, e problema oamenilor.
