Re:Find your birthday (or any other number) in pi ... by Oatmeat on Tuesday March 16, 2010 @10:09AM (#1195701)
It is conjectured that pi is normal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number

If the conjecture is true then any finite sequence of numbers can be found in the digits of pi. As others have noted, infinite sequences are not guaranteed or even likely to appear. As zackattack points out, for example, the decimal expansion of 1/9 does not appear in the digits of pi.
