Personal background
Just doing my part. The sheer statistical numbers presented on the SETI website have really opened my eyes to how large an endeavor this really is.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Do I think extraterrestrial life exists? Yes. The SETI project is fascinating, to say the least, and I'm happy to play my part. Do I think we'll find what we're looking for? Currently, I'm leaning towards "no." The sheer magnitude of the universe is staggering, and I think it'll be quite a while before a positive result pops up. We still need to try though. Hell, for all we know we *could* be the first advanced technology in the universe...Drake equation, etc, etc...someone had to be the first, eh?

Great idea guys, probably the single best use of internet technology I can think of. A huge conglomerate of individual computers, each chugging away...letting others contribute to the effort.
