Personal background
I am from Coolamon. A small town in south western New South Wales, Australia. I am a 41 year old secondary science teacher. I teach junior science, senior physics and senior biology. I have been married to my long suffering wife for 16 years and I have a 14 year old daughter who thinks her dad is a little ecsentric. This could not be further from the truth. I am a well balanced sensible adult who is a product of the glorious 60's and 70's. We are living on a 5 acre hobby farm whos population includes 3 dogs, 8 sheep, 9 chickens, 3 possums, a large brown snake, a family of pillaging field mice and an assortment of local birdlife.

My hobbies include permaculture (a form of permanent agriculture), gardening, astronomy, and watching my yard (bird watching). Watching the yard involves sitting in a chair and watching what happens any birds that move around or the sun setting etc.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think SETI is a wonderful program to have. It gives your computer something to do while you are not using it. I like to watch the colours and graphs go by.
Yes I think that ET does exist from both a scientific AND christian view. I dont know when we will run into ET but I am hoping it will be in my lifetime. The possible benifits will be the sharing of knowledge and the inprovement of earths economic problems. The dangers may exist not so much in an alien takeover but from diseases that may be introduced to us from them or from us to them. I thought humans were already transmitting a signal.

I run SETI at home to give a little helping hand to the program. I was running it for a long time back in 1999-2000. I think its a brilliant brilliant project.
