Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home

I often think I was
either born too early or too late, but then again I assume everyone feels
that way at some point.

I like the whole concept behind SETI@Home,
its non commercial, cooperative, useful, enjoyable, constructive and fun.
There are few enough things in today's world that can be described like
that.� I hope the concept catches on and is applied
to many more projects.

Will ET be found? (Actually I
caught one and its living in my basement working on the cure for
skepticism!)� I don't know but it is fun to think about and it certainly seems possible if not
likely.
