| Personal background |
|---|
I'm male, age 45 on 2/aug/05, my hobbies are stillwater angling, computers and reading. I'm a voracious reader of sci-fi and fantasy novels. my current favourite authors are David Weber, Terry Pratchett and Peter F Hamilton. I was born in Blackpool, UK and I've lived here since. The largest fish I've caught so far is a 14lb Pike which is exciting enough, but I wouldn't mind another. I have gray hair which changes colour according to one of my daughters needs (she's a trainee hairdresser). I'm married with eight children, most of whom have left home and have partners and kids of their own.
I guess thats it. |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I seriously doubt anything will ever come of the seti search. The further away the stars we look at, the further back in time we go. there is a thin window of time from each star, what are the odds (not that there will be life, I believe thats statistically garuanteed) that there will be a technologically able species during the instant of time we are looking at?. Theres been life here for over a billion years, but radio traffic for less than a century.
I'm also an optimist, thats why I'm doing this. I have a previous account with a couple of years of completed units but I cant for the life of me remember the account name or mail address I was using. I want to find someone who can show me how to build a seti farm so I can do much more.
I love this project and have the deepest respect for those involved. apart from the genome project, this is probably the most significant endevour in history. Not just from the search but for developing the whole networked computers idea. |
