Personal background
I am 32 year old, full time student. I am intersted astronomy and chemisty and currenty taking classes aimed in that direction for a carrear in thoes fields. I am leaving behind a successful comuter netwoking engineer carear behind. I have been woking with computers for 18 years. I figure soon computers will be repairing us - everything comes full circle, so I chose to exit the computer field before it exited me.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1. I run SETI@home to heat up my room to a comfortable 73 degres F. I had been running SETI clasic off and on starting 10 years ago until BOINC. I believe even though raido detction for signals is feeble at best, at least we ar doing someting. Who knows maybe the civilization that is a million or more years ahead of us might just have a HAM raido in their museaums.

2. I have always been intrested in aliens, and you could say a fasination. I am one of thoes people that wants to get abducted by grey-men with big black eyes, but I can never seem to get their attention. I do believe they have visited or have been here on Earth, or near by for a long time. I would like to see this project expand beyond radio signals. I am not sure what the next generation of alien detectors are going to be but I imagine it would have to do with communication or detection that is faster than light.

3. Suggestions besides what I have hinted to in questions one and two. I would like there to be an easy way to see where the best signal candidates are coming from in the sky, server wide. There are so many planets being discovered as of late, and some of these newer planets being discoed are near the size of earth. There should be some attention placed especially on these planets. Does a black hole make noise?
