Welcome.

the back of the envelope will hopefully be a thought provoking blurb of my half-baked ideas and some other stuff.  it'll likely include some science, some observations, maybe music and movies - but maybe not because mike dunn has that on lock down over at http://pinatavalentines.blogspot.com/.  the goal is to avoid any similarities to deep thoughts by jack handey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSrXpFb7jFo).  that's not much of a goal to strive for, but it's a start.  i'll try to make it mildly entertaining, if i fail - no one will know.  its well within the realm of possibility that this will just add to the floating mass of garbage in cyber space, but i'll try to avoid that too.
