Profile: Boater

Personal background
54 years old. Life long resident of NY, hobbies consist of Boating, Fishing, Computers, and reading tech. magazines of all sorts. Firm believer that we are not alone, but we are looking in the wrong places the wrong way, using our technology to find thiers, might be incompatible.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I definitly believe that it does. If they are tech. advanced enough to contact us we will discover it when they deem it appropriate. Sending a beacon? I believe that most of what we transmit already is our beacon, and the content is evident, the nightly news, the troubles we have here on earth is let loose to the universe, lets face it a ground station uplink doesn't stop at the recieving end, most of the signal is sent to every corner of the galaxy and beyond, albeit maybe in a relatively crude form, but that's the best we have.
I run Seti at home on the chance we may intercept someone elses news broadcast.
As far as suggestions go, maybe a different spectrum of communications is needed to be discovered, radio waves are what we have, and know but there must be more.
