| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |

Would like to help in anyway I can. In time, I will be able to provide more CPU time to the project by providing more PCs to the program. Just started assisting barely a couple of months ago.
Had the privilege as a kid of witnessing the discovery of a pulsar at the Arecibo observatory, back in the days before visitor centers. Saww the whole hoopla until a long haired guy with a lab coat advised me and my friends i was best to leave.
On a different note, as an Metrologist during my aerospace career, the standards adopted at SI (Scientifique Internationale), which are meant to be reproduced anywhere in the known universe, imply the same rules apply everywhere. These tell me that with so many possibilities and solar system configurations, there must be a mulitude of places with simliar conditions as ours, both better or worse.
Unfortunately our science presently limits of to the speed of light which is like crossing the sahara on a thirsty donkey, but other advances in detecting solar wobbles and other methods had really pushed the issue.
In this sense it is a great time to be a live, witness and help participate in sorting the cruelly large amounts of data received....just hang on
It is a matter of time until we find something as our sciences and technologies evolve.
