I'm 25 years old; I live in Western NY with my wife and brand new baby boy. I am a computer service tech by trade but was "down sized" recently so I am doing some free lance stuff. I enjoy video games I have SETI running on both of my systems XP and Linux. I honestly belive this is a very good thing we are doing to help man kind.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I truely believe there must be other life in the Universe otherwise "it seems like a waste of space" I believe the more we have people working on SETI the quicker we will find our brothers and sisters in space. We NEED to send a beacon to say "yup thats us third from the left" I think maybe the movie "Contact" had the right idea send prime number so "they can know we have science" That is if it is true that prime numbers are a Universal constant.
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
