I go to Murdoch University in Western Australia. I will finish university with a degree in Molecular Biology and a sore liver. I think that SETI is whacked but hey it's better than doing politics, good luck to them. I think the movie Contact was a load of shite. Thank you. Have a nice day.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I personally beleive if we haven't found anything yet then whatever is out there does not want to be found.
So why am I permitting my computer to be whored out to SETI?
Well when intelligent life does want to express it's intentions to destroy us all for resources or an interstellar bypass I want to feel partly responsible for us, the human species, knowing about it's certain demise.
