Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I don't think that scanning radio-waves is the way to get contact to other civilizations but it doesn't hurt much to be on the safe-side. Besides distrubuted calculation of data is quite interesting. It's cool screensaver too. =)
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.
