I am a 60 year old M.D. with some free time used for searching about old questions like: How complex must be a message to be recognized as coming from an intelligent mind and not as a product of random coincidences...?
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1)Because I want to participate in the declared goals of the proyect.
2)The core idea in my opinion must be to define when random processes became intelligent processes.
3)Once 2) is defined, the some principle must be applied for facts around us in this planet.
