I'm a 20 year old university student studying Geology.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
intelligent life is/was/will be out there, the question is one of if we will ever find it. i would love to know that out there is another species. and besides that when someone sees my screen saver and asks what it is, i can say "that there is one of the worlds most resource intensive screen savers".
