I'm a SETI@home fanatic with 4 computers (total of 7 CPUs) running 24x7.
I would have only a couple computers if it weren't for the SETI@home project.
In my late 50s, educated with some college, have built 6 computers myself and passed a few along to family. Yes, I am proud to be a member of this historic SETI@home team effort.

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
1) The loss of trust in our scientific community and governments will be the worse effect of failure to promote full disclosure of the increase in knowledge that was financed by the public and belongs to all mankind. I believe that some ET life, current or extinct, has already been discovered.
2) We have already transmitted a beacon but should not have. Since we believe in ET for the most part, we should only listen and anaylyze what we hear for many years before attempting further contact. We should assume that there are ALL KINDS out there, Good and Bad, less advanced and more advanced, Friendly and PREDITOR. Or, haven't we learned anything from nature here on earth?
3) I joined SETI@home not so much to find ET but because I believed that this would become the largest Distributed Computing Task that the world has ever seen. Our dreams were fulfilled so rapidly that we have opened doors that were never dreamed of, a new era in scientific research and advancement is at our fingetips. What has been learned about Distributed Computing Tasks and managing massive networks is a paramount advancement to science and the human race. We should begin to expand the project to other forms of communications such as LASER LIGHT emissions and maybe even something like SPACE SOUND WAVES, magnetic pulse, or other previously undetectable forces.
