Profile: Dr. Jay Blum

Personal background
Not too young physician from the United States.
Hate war, stupidity, fundamentalist republicans, the tobacco companies and our refusal to face the reality of energy needs and consumption.

Love food, my wife, better treatments for chronic diseases.
Idolize Carl Sagan. While he was alive, he was my writein candidate for president since 1980.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Carl Sagan is one of the few people in this world who got it right.
I think of George Bush and the others running our planet and it is only for people like Carl Sagan that the human race has any hope.

The earth is not 6000 years old, Jesus was just a Jew with a good stage presense, and Mohammad was just a man.

There may be two few smart people brave enough to say "I don't know".

I wish I could do more to improve the human condition. At least Seti lets me participate in something bigger than Beavis and Butthead and possibly help us to know.

If we contact someone out there, what would we tell them of us; Dafur, Mynamar,
The Congo, New Orleans, Afganistan. I would tell them about Carl Sagan, Albert Einstein, The Harlem Boy's Choir...
