It's amazing how many of us pioneers are still cranking away. 11 years in this industry is probably equivalent to the difference between my upbringing and my great-grandkids. And I'm not sure I want to go back to that era. ID: 1016240 ·

Does it count if you went away for, say, 6 years? Not until the 23rd., it won't..... Ok, time for bed, I fail to parse the grammer. I'll rephrase: Do you belong to the club by virtue of age (of the account, silly) or is it necessary to have been active all that time as well? Happy SETI Birthday!

A little on and off from time to time. But still alive and well. Still have my old rig from '98 standing standby. It were quick at the time. Those were the days So count me as part of the 11 years club as well ID: 1020404 ·

To a high point of 10 machines. I scaled right back last year just leaving one machine to keep up appearances. I have recently restarted 2 machines full time. I wonder how may of us will be here in another 11 years? To be fair I will 70!! ID: 1021151 ·

Tullio I wasn't despairing, just wondering where we might be 11 years from now. For instance I am typing this on an iPad with a virtual keyboard and touch screen that connects by wireless to a broadband router that connects via an ADSL line to the Internet at 10meg. All of that might have seemed like since fiction 11 years ago. I suspect it will surprise us all :-) Opps double post ID: 1021504 ·
