| Personal background |
|---|
I'm a network/system consultant by day, nerd rawker by night. In the picture, I'm the dork in the spacesuit in the middle of the group there. I think my mouth is open? Volumen (http://www.volumen.net or http://www.mp3.com/volumen) is the name of heavy-wave band that I'm in. Considering that a large chunk of our body of work references outer space (as in Sexy Astronaut), robots, unicorns, etc., SETI@home just made sense.
I also maintain a ghost town of a portal site http://www.nerddiary.org. It's mainly to help me remember solutions to technical problems that I've come up against.

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I have between 5-10 servers running in my garage and home office at any one time (the power bill is a bitter pill). I'll soon have SETI@home running on all of them. I do this because I have no doubts that there is other (that is, if we even count) intelligence out there. If they are smart, however, they will avoid us like the plague. But we shall see. Hopefully I can convince them to sit in on a session with us?
I think it's human nature to send our beacon out into the void. It's our little way of saying. "Hay, look at us! We exist! We are doing stuff! Seriously, check us out!" I don't think it really matters what we send on the beacon. I think the fact that we send it says a lot about us. |
