BACKGROUND

Founded in 2010, Yoyodyne General Services is a real, family-based consulting firm. If our name sounds familiar, it's probably because you're a fan of the 80's film Buckaroo Banzai: Across the 8th Dimension, wherein the titular character similarly defends the United States against extra-dimensional threats. 

Buckaroo Banzai himself is an experimental physicist, neurosurgeon, rock-star, and trusted adviser to the President during moments of international crisis. Though none of us can profess Dr. Banzai's range of expertise, as a team, we are getting pretty close.  

Several other companies, both real and fictional, share the name Yoyodyne, including an aerospace manufacturer in Thomas Pynchon's V. and the builders of the Nebula-class starships in the Star Trek universe. As actual defense contractors, we couldn't resist being the first to appropriately assume the spirit of the name.
