I am the lead Network Engineer for an ISP in central Illinois. My boring job consists of programming Cisco routers and talking to 'IT Consultants' whos networking skills are obviously far inferior to mine.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I'm sure life on other planets exists. I hope that it is intelligent life, because this planet seems to be teaming with low-brow, white-trash-like dumbasses who don't deserve a frontal lobe.
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.
