I have worked on computers ever since I learned to walk. I think it is cool that I can have my computers do something useful when they aren't being used.
I install seti@home as often as I can on any system I can get my hands on.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I often think that finding ET will bring mankind together. Perhaps we sill stop fighting ourselves in such useless ways.
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.
