Call me a sucker for purple/blue pastel shades. I thought the back cover  
would make a nice fabric cover.

They really need to open a European branch, it's not as if they'd have to  
send anything physically over to do the printing.

I only looked at the first image; it looks a lot like some areas just 
off one of the bigger discs that touch the main cardioid.

By the way... I have this calendar on my desk at work. I can't *believe* 
nobody has commented on it yet. I mean, just *look* at January. It's a 
freakin' psychopathic rainbow spiral! Surely that's worth a raised 
eyebrow at least??

  If everyone knows you are a nerd then everyone expects you to have
nerdy things in your desk and nothing comes as a surprise. ;)

Heh. I guess you're right...

Apparently normal people don't find brightly coloured shiny things as 
interesting as I do. :-(
