| Personal background |

Not much to tell. Just an old Crone trying to keep up. I've created a small natural woodland in my back yard where I can look up through the branches of my giant Ash tree and see the worlds' stars sparkling through. That's where I usually get any inspiration for garden design, landscaping, herb growing and so on. Then when I get back inside and my one-eyed cat tells me in no uncertain terms that I've been gone too long, I'm reminded that even while I'm looking upwards and outwards, life on this earth continues on and needs tending.
So I do. |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |

I think that as we age there's a tendency to forget just how exciting and wondrous it is just to look up at the stars and wonder if anyone is looking back at us. So, I decided I would do whatever I could to help speed up direct eye contact with that other person out there. I posted the following (slightly rephrased for here) as a response in one of the Seti message boards. I think it pretty much describes how I feel about life, “out thereâ€.
Just from an odds standpoint, scientific investigation notwithstanding, there are simply too many stars, too many galaxies, for there not to be other life.
Whether you're a scientist, a dreamer, a computer geek, or anyone else that would like to find and communicate with life from somewhere else, there simply hasn't been enough broad scientific investigation, Or rolling of the dice to make any determinations about whether we are alone, or not. Right now, it's a matter of faith and belief in probabilities. We really don't have anything else to go on, so we keep doing what we can to find the answers.
And I, for one, continue to look up and hope |
