Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
The way I see it, it doesn't matter if we find ET or not, but simply that fact that we are searching is good.

Finding another living entity in the universe would be amazing, but searching and not finding something would be absolutly incredible, the fact that we would be the only 'intelligent beings' in this vast hunk of space...

Either way, it's something that I am proud to be a part of.

Do I think ET exists?
I would have to say I hope it does, I think it would be sad to think that we are the only ones.

Should we broadcast?
Hell yeah we should pump some sounds into space, maybe just a "we come in peace" type message, nothing saying anything to descriptive... just enough to get their attention, who knows, they may be running SETI on there side of the universe too...

Why run SETI?
I run SETI simply because I figure my machine may as well be doing something... I couldnt be bothered playing with it more, so I chucked SEETI on it in two instances, one for each CPU.

Views?
Cool...very very cool.

Suggestions?
Some thing that would optimise for a certain processor? I mean kinda like the different versions for P4/P3/Athlon/K6 dont know, just a suggestion.
