I saw that on her bio after I posted the message, but I figured she could be a French person who moved to Kentucky.

I would guess that the 31415 signifies pi.

Yep, but I wasn't necessarily looking for a sensible answer, since it wasn't a sensible question in the first place ...

Throw in some fabric reference, and you're French silk pi.

Actually, my family and I thought of that, too! Let's see...francais-3.1415-du-soie (literally "French pi of silk").

Pi
or if she's a French pi, does that mean her real name is Paté, as in Paté Page ?

This reminds me of the old joke about the not-too-bright boy who was in math class and heard that the area of a circle is pi-R-squared. He scratched his head and remarked, "That can't be right. Pi are not square; pi are round."
