Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I do beleive that given the innumerable amount of stars and galaxies in the Universe that there has to be at least one other civilization, advanced or not. I just seems immposible that we could be the only "advanced" life forms in even this galaxy...if this is the case, I feel sorry for our galaxy!

I've been running SETI@home for more than 3 years. I'm hoping we'll find something soon, to give us some perspective and perhaps help our human race grow up! I just hope what ever civilization we run into is more advanced and compasionate than ours, it will take a lot of understanding to accept us.
