    You are invited to join some of the Seti Admins on Saturday May 23rd at Tilden Park in Berkeley. There is no entrance fee and food will be provided.

    So what do you say, care to join the fun?

    Yes there is a catch. A RSVP is required in order to have an accurate headcount. Please post it here or via a PM to me.



    Feel free to post any question you may have here also.

    Thank you
    Uli

                          Of course, we're about 16 hours ahead of Berkeley, so you'll hafta get up early if you want some! ;)

                            I'll be there! I just happen to be in the Bay Area on a project. I've been crunching since 1999 and it'll be good to meet some of my fellow participants and maybe some of the luminaries. Chaco (Dennis).

                              I'd love to join you, but it's too far from Saskatchewan, and I daren't duck on my own own 22nd anniversary. But at least I can celebrate twice!

                                    I think there should be some sort of raffle at the party. (Person need not be present to win.) Cheap but fun and/or interesting prize that is SETI related. Email address pulled out of a bucket by ANONYMOUS is the winner.

                                      Interesting raffle idea. Do you think anyone would buy a ticket to win a raccoon? Oh, you said the prize should be Seti-related... How about a raccoon wearing one of your anniversary tees?

                                        Buy? I find that word incompatible with the 'net. Unless you have a raffle torrent hidden somewhere. That's why I said cheap.

                                        You can have a paid raffle for those that show up - and those that 'donate' online to enter this raffle (hint to Blurf). But the prize would need to be more valuable.

                                            So far David is a yes, and I assume he's bringing Erica and Noah.
                                            Dan will be there with Mary Kate and Will.
                                            Matt will be there probably with Jenya.


                                            Don't know about Bob yet.

                                                      Bob is in, and is bringing some of his famous jerked pork.

                                                      So now we've got the entire staff with the exception of Jeff and Josh.

We submit, rather, that the foregoing line of argument demonstrates that the presence of interstellar signals is entirely consistent with all we now know, and that if signals are present the means of detecting them is now at hand. Few will deny the profound importance, practical and philosophical, which the detection of interstellar communications would have. We therefore feel that a discriminating search for signals deserves a considerable effort. The probability of success is difficult to estimate; but if we never search the chance of success is zero."

                                                                                  But my 10'th anniversary with SETI has allready come and gone four days ago on may 14. So I celebrated it here home alone hoping for anyone to be out there ;)

                                                                                  I joined May 14.th 1999. I wonder how I could've been early since the official launch was'nt until may 17. 99.
                                                                                  I have a vag memory of excitement and anticipation around launch, but I no longer remember the detailed story. Can anybody refresh my mind?

                                                                                                                                    The ingredients are all natural... no artificial flavors or colors... many ingredients grown locally!

                                                                                                                                    That only confirms my imagined list of ingredients.

I am sure everyone recognizes the project staff from the about pages. I figured people would chime in with self identification.

Most people came with their SO, so that covers some. As for SETI crunchers from the boards here there were 3 other than myself: Angela, uli, and one other whom I can't recall his name.
