| I am originally from Brooklyn, New York and currently reside in Cleveland, Ohio. I am 36 years old and work as a manager for a stone fabrication shop. The Seti@Home project is very fascinating. You have to respect the inginuity. Just in case anyone is trying to find a common denominator between users, here are some of my hobbies: chess, computers, desktop publishing, unsolved mysteries, and fascinating theories (the meaning of life). |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
One day I read an article and it stated that every possible move combination in chess had been documented by a computer. Why not? The board is "limited" to a playing area of 64 squares and 32 pieces. Regardless of how intelligent the players are, that still doesn't change the fact that the game is self-contained, the pieces can't leave their 'universe'. Now, punch a hole in that universe and you could open up endless possiblities, 'moves' if you so desire.
If our universe is a closed one, or if it always expanding; I've often asked myself 'what was there before it expanded?'. It had to expand somewhere. What is that somewhere? I can hold a chessboard in my hand, and view it as the universe, now where would it go if it expanded? Even if the universe didn't expand, then what is at the edge of the universe. Where would I be if I skipped off the edge, where would I land?
It's not whether or not there is life out there, it's the search that intrigues us the most. I am hopeful that there is, but I wouldn't be disappointed if there isn't. As far as suggestions for Seti@Home, maybe you can contract with a few software companies like Microsoft and incorporate your program into theirs and use some of their server space. |
