The story about me is told in geek code (version 3.12) - in order to confuse the enemy :-)
I use this format, as I am sure ETs will present
themselfes to us in a similar way!
However, you could insert the code in the http://www.ebb.org/ungeek/ page and see what happens.

BTW. It turns out I'm an INTJ temperament, which is a sub-category of "rationals" according to Keirsey. Whether this is good or not I have no idea. Still, don't say that only irrational folks look to the skies :-) |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I strongly believe extraterrestrial life exists!
Including smart life capable of sending (at least) radiosignals. I also believe that humans will discover such lifeforms through SETI - and within the next 30 years.
And surely there will be both benefits and dangers
following such a discovery! However, thats the nature
of discovery. Knowledge is always both good and bad. But to me, it is always better than ignorance.
Obviously, I hope the ETs will be friendly! And I hope Homo Sapiens will be more friendly than we have been in the past (to outsiders). Indeed, we should take a good hard look at our own species. Take time off to reflect on the TV- and radio signals we have been sending to e.g. the ETs for more than 50 years now. In Carl Sagans "Contact" the ETs picked up a broadcast from a Nurnberg rally! Surely, there is room for improvement in the way we conduct our lives and civilisation. And definitely, we humans should think more carefully about what kind of signals we put up there in space :-)
I run SETI@home as my small contribution! A MUST project.
Happy to help out.
Keep up the good work guys!
