Personal background
I am from North Bergen, NJ. I work in retail sales/customer service for Firestone currently and am 28 years old. I love my pets (2 conures, a boa constrictor, and siberian husky -used to work at a pet store a while back-). I also enjoy 4 wheeling my Bronco when it isn't in the shop from the previous trip 4 wheeling :> I like tinkering with cars and computers. I'm a pretty boring guy. I hang out with my pets and do my thing when I'm not at work. Not into clubs or bars. I just do my job and pay my bills. What gets me about seti is not oh you're looking to help et phone home or anything stupid like that. I just look up at the stars out in the middle of nowhere, there are so many, and I can't help wondering. It's a lazy way for me to look, without really spending any time looking. I run 2 computers 24 hours a day anyway because with cars and computers I am a speed freak, so my computers are always defragging or running virus scans, etc etc. And I do the same with my girlfriend's computer as well (besides she never uses it anyway). It gives my computers something to do, and a reason to have a dsl connection aside from my online gaming. I also like to do my once a month live action role playing game. It's like d&d but you act out your character instead of rolling dice.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I like seti@home. It's like I said before. You look up and have to think and wonder if anything might be out there. I think if there is anything out there it will find us. By the time humans get into space something will have to have beaten us technologically. Too much politics, not enough will to discover it seems like. Also the funding for space exploration and travel is sadly lacking.
I don't think it would matter if we transmit a beacon or not. Our own radio waves and tv transmissions and all make us visible if any aliens are looking for life as we are. Besides with all the radio and tv going out from earth, aliens will probably avoid us thinking we're space retards anyway. For all we know aliens know where we are but just don't want to deal with us.
