Personal background
I'm a mom (3 sons ages 32 to 9) and a grandmother. I downloaded Seti in May of 1999 after my then, physics major son at Texas A&M emailed me the news release and said "This sounds cool." When I got the 500 Unit Certificate a couple of months ago, the same son, who is now a philosphy major, said, "Oh I thought you'd have more units by now!" Kids!! I run it at home and on my work computer. I use it to inspire myself.....and the kids. I had some construction workers working on my house last year and a couple of the workers told me they signed up too after seeing my screen. Although my oldest son, whenever he thinks my political life is off kilt asks "Has your seti search found anything mom?"
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I do it because I am hopeful, eternally hopeful......and it is a colorful screen saver.
