Greetings. My name is Blake Stacey. I hail from the Greater MIT Metropolitan Area and have been a member of the Pynchonista since the fall of 2001. My first useful contribution in these parts was this {{spoiler template}}.

Science and mathematics topics to expand
This is downright intimidating. All of the following science and mathematics topics have either no entry beyond the bare name or the merest nubbin of an entry, usually copied from the Wikipedia. All of them deserve more. I will provide what I can, rooting through the entropy generator laughably known as my memory and leaning heavily upon my trusty library. Please let me know if new science topics appear in the Alpha Index, or if someone else takes care of an entry. Many thanks, BlakeStacey 16:03, 7 December 2006 (PST)
