Maybe I missed the question, why do people insist on saying this, like it's surprising or some old wise saying and holds true all the time. Could you possibly point out anything more obvious by saying that? I'd be worried if that were not true and people kept looking.

pi = 4 - 4/3 + 4/5 - 4/7 + 4/9 - 4/11 + 4/13 - 4/15 + ...

That's Advertising.

telephone number. The next day you call and say, "Hi, I'm fantastic in
bed."
That's Telemarketing.

straighten your dress. You walk up to him and pour him a drink. You say,
"May I," and reach up to straighten his tie brushing yourself slightly
against his arm, and then say, "By the way, I'm fantastic in bed."
That's Public Relations.
