Personal background
hi, my name is Francis Smith, i come from Scotland, and i am 23 years old.

i currently work for 2 universities on a part time basis, curently i am studing for a degree in psycholog, and am in the third my third year, i hope to stay on for a forth year as i wish to get a single honrs in psychology.

The role i perform is that of a tutor at paisley university, specifically in regardes to teaching a 6th year high school class in the differences and possible pit wholes in changing from high school to university.

the other job at glasgow calidonian is teaching in a primary 7 class about the benifits of getting a university level qualification, both of my jobs are very rewaring.

my hobbies are just like most, socializing, cinemas, books (i read alot), and maintaining fitness as i am also a member of the TA (Territoral Army) currently in the recruiting process. this is a great break from the usual work load of uni and work within the uni.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
i have always been a fan of the search, but untill recently my PC was still running a 100mhz CPU clock so now with the big increase i was able to help out :)

my views on the project are mixed, i feel that its only a matter of time before other life in the universe is discovered, the odds that its got atleast one other civilisation out their are to strong. but i do think that radio waves may not be th ebest method of communication, and that its only a small chance that we will find others out their through it, however although its a small chance i still hope that its the right move.

communication technology has to be developed, more faster advanced methods woudl help the search, along with a PROCESSING capacity upgrade, but as with everything this would cost money :(
