Seti@home is an awsome idea. Perhaps we can help in more ways than one. But I like to run Seti@home because I have plenty of CPU power to spare so why not. It's for a good cause.
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
