Personal background
I'm a junior in high school, and I currently live just right out side of St.Louis Missouri. In my free time, I like to read, and play Sports. Im on my high school's: track, cross country, fencing and ice hockey team.... Yes it's crazy:-) Work.. well mainly a student, but I also work 10hrs a week of community service, and have a small computer company I started up, where I build custom computers. I enjoy investing in the stock market and reading about economics. Upon graduation from high school, I hope to attend Indiana University-Bloomington, where I want to major in Economics and Finance.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run seti@home cause I feel there is life out there, and well might as well do something usefull with my computer besides leaving it idle running a screen saver. I think the book 'Contact' by Carl Sagan, kinda got me hooked on it. I know there is plenty of other projects out there that find cures for medicane in such, but everyone seems isolated, where seti has message boards, stats, in such. My suggestion would be that we need to find those little green men:-)
