hi.. i'm french an i'm a fan of ants. I have at home several colonies. I love these small animals which share their resources. When a worker carries a brushwood, it helps to the construction of a complex building. When it drinks a honey drop, it divides it so that all the colony has always to drink. With BOINC I feel like a small ant, and my WUs are my brushwood...
