I now live in Wisconsin. Before that Florida, Arizona and Illinois. Jobs i've had are all different too. Managed video arcades and worked in a pawn shop, to private detective and corrections officer at a state prison. I just built a new computer and thought I would put it to good use with SETI.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
As far as evereyone being glad if we found ET I have my reservations. In our history no advanced civilization has come into contact with a less advanced culture without taking it over, economically or by force. So maybe we should find them befere they find us :)
