Introduction

My name is Ian Matthews, I am an Electrical Engineering student tasked with completing a senior design project that is supposed to encapsulate all of the knowledge that I have acquired over the past 3 years.  There is a lot of research involved in this project and when I get bored, which is quite often, I find something in my reading that is only slightly relevant to what I am researching and start looking into that instead.  It doesn't help me get my project done but I usually find some interesting facts (interesting to me at least) along the way.  I will be writing about these tangents or side thoughts here on a semi regular basis. Let's see how this goes.
