Here is my idea for a hoax. Please use it:

Convince a bunch of people that you have found that algorithm that takes a number, X, and returns the Xth-to-last digit of Pi.

See if you can get people worked up about it.

IT IS SO NOT A GOOD IDEA any moron can see that that's impossible. You can't correllate an integer to its placement in an irrational number. what if i gave you a non-integer for x? What then? give me the 3.14159th digit from the end of pi, you moron. jesus you're so simple.

It only works if X is a whole number. I should have said that.
