Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Do you think extraterrestrial life exists? If so, when and how will humans discover it? What are the possible benefits and dangers of such a discovery?

You're asking me? More than likely I would think...

If so, when and how will humans discover it?

Going to be a while yet. Telescopes aren't really sensitive enough. Also there's a lot of RFI floating about...

What are the possible benefits and dangers of such a discovery?

Benefits? Too far a way to strike up a conversation really. Dangers? Mass hysteria!

Should humans transmit a beacon for others to find? If so, what information should we send?

We have done haven't we? Anyone got a spare 1 or 2 gigawatt microwave transmitter and high gain antenna we can use please?... oh and a bloke to put shillings in the electricity meter....

Why do you run SETI@home?

It's a nice waste of clock cycles...
