Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think that extraterrestrial life exists, but it may be unrecognizable. I have my doubts about whether they will use radio communication or that their radio transmission will use the carrier/sideband frequency modulation that the software seems to be looking. But being an eternal optimist, I run SETI.
