Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I started crunching SETI on May 17, 1999. When I heard about it I joined right up. I'm a firm believer that there are others out there. Personal experiences made me a believer back in the late 70's. The problem with personal experiences and the evidence thats been collected won't sway the skeptics. When SETI came on board I felt that this is what we needed, a scientific way to prove without a doubt that there is life out there other than us.
