I am fortunate to live in Austin, Texas. I am a physician working in the field of pharmaceutical research.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think Seti@home and BOINC in general are great ideas.
I wish BOINC would develop a RAM disk program to use with their software-it would speed things enormously and give us more computations per watt which is the green thing to do!
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
