I'm from Canada, home of the northern lights. I'm a computer analyst/programmer, I was a navagational aids tech for the military (RADARS and stuff) so I'm use to seeing radio signals. I currently own my own company 'UniMatrix Technologies' were we do custom applications and hardware for different industries. I got started in astrology in high school and continue to have an interest in it.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
As far as SETI is concerned - just think of the odds that we are alone.
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.
