Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Yes, extraterrestrial life does exist. Not likely to be just like us in shape, mentality.
No, we should not broadcast a beacon. Why think another civilization would be any less warlike than we are?
Earthlings can't get along among themselves, so why invite any more protagonists?
I run SETI at home because it is one way I can contribute to important research without any downside for me.
I have idle cycles, why not allow others to use them constructively?
