Profile: Mick Elmes

Personal background
Hello:)

I live at Eastern Beach in Auckland, New Zealand. I work in a range of engineering related jobs and had a couple of non engineering related businesses as well. Probably the most memorable was 10 years spent designing and building keelers (sail boats in the US I believe)

House architecture has always interested me and I've designed and built our present house as well as the previous two we have had.

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Imagine the effect on mankind, when contact is eventualy made! Profound would be a profound understatement:) At last, we might all start to become free of a lot of garbage and hopefully united in our sense of reality. Think of the possibilities!

If there's ANYTHING I can do that increases the chances of that happening in my lifetime, maybe it'll all have been worth it.

A friend, now living in Australia used to say "It'll all be the same in a hundred years Mick" and if SETI@home can make that contact while he and I are still around, I vow I'll fly over, pour him another rum and coke and ask him to say it again. Yeh right!

"The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
I stole that off Rookie_69 of The Final Front Ear team, who also stole it. So thanks Rookie_69 and if it's yours I'd love to hear from you!

And one I like from Dora "I think we have always known...."
