Profile: Douglas Fifield - Work

Personal background
Currently 55 years on this ball, this time around. Left handed for writing and eating. Took up engineering in mid-life. Before that, enjoyed wonderfully prolonged adolescence. Married, two kids, dog, boat (sail), motorcycle (old BMW), sleeper car (96 Audi S6 Avant - not stock), guitar (old Guild D-25). Enjoy reading (almost anything but fond of speculative fiction), biking (all kinds), walking, people watching, traveling, skiing, music.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI because:

a) I am a romantic with the delusional hope of finding something out there,

b) I beleive in utilizing all those spare computer cycles, and

c) I like looking at all the other SETI nuts, participating in this grand experiment.
