Switched up to a new, higher-powered computer, have more cpu cycles available. Been running Seti@home for some time successfully. Added the Climate project but I don't see any evidence that I am contributing to that project yet. Been several days. Is there some "open sesame" click somewhere I didn't do?

It is not clear where and what do you look to find "any evidence"

For first "evidence" look in Event Log (Ctrl+Shift+E)

E.g. for lines like these:

CPDN tasks have very long run times - about a year. It is not uncommon for them to run for a few hours then stop for a few months! Also they don't send out many at a time, only one or two to a cruncher.
If you use the "advanced" view, and you have one (or more) CPDN tasks you will see them listed there.

One thing you can cahck is make sure you tick ALL the available tasks types - there's about a dozen of them...
