Just your garden-variety cat lady; I have seven rescued cats (and one rescued dog) plus endless fosters going in and out, and I help with several feral cat colonies around Houston.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI@home because I think it will work. There are undoubtedly other life forms out there, and I'd love to talk to them.
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
