I think SETI@home is a wonderful project which needs all
the support it can get not only from the people who run it
on their computers, but from the government and the people
with all the cash burning holes in their pockets.
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.
