Personal background
I'm 52 years old and been a computer software engineer for 26 years. I'm
currently a Sybase DBA working in the financial community in New York City.
On the water all my cares seem to be left behind; the only problem being the
winter impacts the boating season (ha). So I ski in the winter - been doing that
for 20 years now and don't intend to stop until some a-hole from you-know-where
blows my building out from under me!

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
My brother was killed in the WTC on 9-11. I watched the first tower fall from the 36th floor of my building. Shortly afterwards I joined SETI in order
to keep my mind occupied with more productive endeavors than those forced upon me by the terrorist acts
committed against my family and country. I was a SETI member for a few months while
working for Time a few years ago, so I wasn't new to the search. Who knows .. maybe
we'll find someone out there who can show us how stupid we really are ? Or .. how smart we (SetiSearch) are compared to other "members" of the human family!
