hello,
i'm 43, disabled, and i am a computer geek. i run seti at home because it would be conceited to think we are the only intelligent species in a universe filled with billions of stars. this project is worthy of my time and i feel that not enough has been done to investigate the possibility of alien life.
thank you very much berkeley university for supporting such a lofty goal!
