How would one phrase such a law? Would Congress simply issue
a finding:

"Be it declared to all and sundry, whereas the limit of
(1+1/n)^n as n increases without bound has heretofore been
known as e or Euler's Number and has been used as the base
of the so-called "Natural Logarithms" and whereas no living
American Citizen has 2.71828459045 fingers and since discrimination
against users of power tools has no place in our enlightened
Republic, the base for the system of natural logarithms is hereby
and henceforth declared to be the integer 2."
