1.21 Jigowatts!? Great Scott!

I suppose every random blog needs an introduction.

This blog is to accomplish a few key things - firstly, and most obviously, it contains jigowatts.

Put simply, a "jigowatt" is a "gigawatt" misspelled. In the classic film Back to the Future, Doc Brown calls the measure of energy the "jigowatt" because it was spelled that way in the script! The writers of the film actually thought it was the correct spelling because they had heard it pronounced as such.

Thusly, all my BTTF comments and such will be contained here, if I have any.

Secondly, any other thoughts and such that I have about time travel or the like will be contained here. You'd be surprised at how often I think about time travel and other universes and such.
