Personal background
An Indian with a scientific temperament.

I stay at Navi Mumbai (Satellite Township besides Mumbai). All of 24 years, I find science fascinating and hold a passion for computers.

An IT professional, I am an Engineer with Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering as my major. I hold a PG Diploma in Internet Technologies from NCST, India.

Hobbies include (fast) cars, comps and books. Nothing much to say ....

Anything Else: I hate filling these details .......:-)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I dont think that extraterrestrial life exists ..... I firmly believe that it does exist.

Being scientifically inclined and engineer by career, I believe in the power of probability. And if you are here, I am sure you know the high probability of life existing elsewhere in this universe also.

I dont know when will humans discover this life ..... maybe they will discover humans earlier ... the benefits are that humans will learn a bit about peace and unity from these beings. Dangers are that they might be worse (very low chances .......:-) and things may still deteriorate.

I think the humans should definitely transmit a beacon for others to find. The most obvious information to be sent would be anything that is periodic and catchy. The signals should repeat in a short as well as long intervals of time (We dont know their sampling frequency ...;-)

I run SETI@home because even if we cant do something, we should atleast try. Others may follow our example and get better results.

Other Comments: This is a good project and I _hope_ it is doing fine. However, we should also consider searching other forms of signalling like light signals. The intelligence might not like the concept of radio frequencies after all .....

Also I dont imagine the other life to be having a structure like a head, hands, feet ... maybe they dont have feet, only wings, or maybe their only movement may be rolling over on the ground !!! Likewise, they may be just unicellular bacilli or gigantic creatures who survive just on water and hydrogen gas (sic) ...
