I was a little disappointed that the upper range of gravity on earth only goes to 9.8337. Just a little more and there would have been somewhere on earth that was an exact match.
It would have been the ideal (if chilly) place to start a cult.
The initial definition of the meter would have been such that g=pi^2. It was then adjusted but enough for it to remain an interesting (if not too good) approximation.
