We've seen the Union[{0,0.}] disscussion.  Here's a little variation
which seems a little trickier.

In[8]:=
N[{3.141592, Pi}, 3] // Union

Out[8]=
{3.14,3.14}


In[11]:=
Union[N[{3.141592, Pi},3] , 
	SameTest -> (N[#1,3] == N[#2,3]&)]

Out[11]=
{3.14,3.14}


In[14]:=
Union[{Pi, N[Pi]} // N]

Out[14]=
{3.14159}


The last one works works, but the first one represents my situation more
accurately.
