I'm a disgruntled fat white bald guy from the Midwestern United States (electrical engineer). I am convinced that there is a higher intelligence elsewhere in the universe - or at least in Canada or New Zealand!
I joined team Canada for a few reasons:
1) I live near the Canadian Border.
2) I trust CBC News more than the U.S. new casters.
3) I take holiday in Canada.
I have been a member of SETI@home since Thu Jun 3 01:13:01 1999 UTC.
My wife and I wish all well.

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Why do you run SETI@home?
I run SETI@home because I am bored, and not human-centric.
What are your views about the project?
I hope that the aliens that we alert to our presence do not eat us or take our oil!
Any suggestions?
I suggest that you make the Mac OS X version as entertaining as the PC version (gui & screen savers, etc.) Thank You.
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.
