1) Message boards : Number crunching : Dropped from Top 5% to 25% overnight. (Message 1716323) Posted 21 Aug 2015 by BaldBear Post: Strange but my ranking dropped from Top 5% down to 25% overnight. My PC was off for only about 12 hours. <insert sad face here>

2) Message boards : Number crunching : Bad News on BOINC funding (Message 1698407) Posted 4 Jul 2015 by BaldBear Post: That is disappointing news. Was the funding cut or just expired? After running Seti@Home for around 15 years, I had hoped something would have been discovered by now. Well, I hope it can continue for a few more years.

3) Message boards : SETI@home Science : Were we contacted by aliens in 1977? (Message 1659464) Posted 30 Mar 2015 by BaldBear Post: I am now retired, but in the 80's I was on active duty in the Air Force and worked for NASA at JSC. Because of this, my family firmly believes that I know something about the existence of aliens but just refuse to admit it. I can't convince them otherwise. Believe me, if I knew something, I would be telling everybody.

4) Message boards : SETI@home Science : Losing hope... (Message 1648550) Posted 2 Mar 2015 by BaldBear Post: I have been running Seti@Home since 1999 and back then I was sure that a signal would be detected during my lifetime. Now that it is 2015 I am not so sure. The optimism of youth is slowly fading. I will continue to run Seti@Home as long as there is a spark of hope.
