Hi, ya'll. Originally from Germany and in the US since 1965. I live near Chicago, work for a small chemical company and manage their Data processing department amongst other things.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
SPACE has always been a fascination for me. How many times did I look at the stars and wonder just WHO is out there ? I think it terribly arrogant of us to believe that we are the only intelligence in this vast cosmos. So I decided to do my tiny little part in helping SETI. And so far its been fun. The benefits of discovering other intelligence ? If they're smart enough to communicate over such vast distances then they should be able to teach us a thing or two and I'm all for learning new things. Thanks for letting me join.
