Profile: skygazer

Personal background
My name is Michael Edward Knox (Nickname: skygazer). I am married and 48 years old. My wife and I live in Quincy, Massachusetts, USA.
My hobbies include creating simple webpages, designing spreadsheets (I love MS Excel), and I am now realizing my passion for Astrology. I have always been interested in Astrology, but have never really persued it.
I have just purchased my first telescope:
Tasco 40-114675 Reflector
Mirror: 114mm (4.5")
Focal Length: 900mm
Eye Lenses: H20mm, H12.5mm, SR4mm
Barlow: 3X
Max Magnification: 675X
Moonfilter
I am looking forward to becoming proficient in Astronomy as I journey through the skies.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I am a firm believer that extraterrestrial life exists. There are a lot of skeptics out there that will deny any such existance, but I think that it just a smoke screen. The Universe is vast. Until the day that I am presented with hardcore evidence that ET is not out there, I encourage all to keep looking.
We may be looking for trouble looking for ET. That does not mean that we should not continue looking. There are always dangers associated with what we do not know. Where would we be today if explorers before us did not have that curiosity which drove them to venture forth?
