Personal background
I'm a freshman at UNA, in in Florence, Alabama, possibly the most boring place on earth. Maybe if we find some aliens it'll be a little less dull. I have very few decision making skillz, as demonstrated by my undecided major. Russian is about the only cool thing about college so far. I read incessantly, have recently become addicted to silly GameCube games (such as Animal Crossing and Cubivore), listen to many types of musics and have quite a knack for writing, as long as I'm not supposed to be writing anything interesting. So my life's pretty mundane. And the internet access at this school sucks, this being one of the few things I can do with it. So, that's about it. Now everyone knows a little summat about me and the general reason I'm here. Avast ye.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Yes, I believe extraterrestrial life exists, if for no other reason than that God probably found humans boring after a while. The likelihood of said beings being discovered is fairly slim, because we still aren't as smart as we'd like to think. The possible benefits and dangers of this hypothetical discovery have been pretty well covered by the whole sci-fi genre. About all I can say is that the benefits will probably be good things and the dangers will most likely be bad things.
Sure we should transmit a beacon. I recommend that the beacon consist of flashing lights, mind-altering drugs, and repetitive electronic music. Ok, it should probably leave out enticements like "Rich world of vast resources populated by simple-minded squishy fleshlings." That's about as serious an answer as I can come up with for now.
I run this program because I was instructed to by my friend. I think it's a pretty nifty little idea though. If aliens are to be found, I'm happy to do my part in the finding.
