It was 6 years and 1 day ago that I became obsessed with SETI@Home. Now, with 6 computers, massive power bills and no real way to explain it all to loved ones and friends, I'm still tickled pink to be a part of something that I feel really means something important.

Peace and long life.
Live long and crunch.

Thanks all! Another milepost for me (yay me) - I'll hit 100,000 credits for SETI today. I think I'll have a noontime beer (or three) to celebrate.

Happy day to all -

Jim
