I'm an electrical engineer. I've worked on government contracts for the last 15 years and I restore old British cars.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Someone may as well get use of the CPU when I don't need it. I haven't logged onto Setiathome for several months and was surprised at the changes. It's much harder to use and setup then it was.
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.
