45 y/o Paramedic for 29yrs, from NYC*EMS, Orange & Lake Counties, Florida and last but not least Minneapolis,MN who "Believes". I have enjoyed shuttle launch parties at night. I live in the NW metro area of the Twin Cities, 40 mi from city lights with a great view of the stars with my wife Michele of 25yrs, my dog Buddy and ferret Simon. I'm a father of twin girls(21). A member of SkyWatch & SkyWarn as a Spotter that reports to NOAA. I like rock n roll,target shooting and photography. I collect gold n silver coins, diecast ambulances, police cars, fire trucks and hand carved Mahogany Coast Guard aircraft(fixed and rotary wing).
I'm retired now cause someone "didn't hear the siren".

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |

Anyone that thinks we are alone is just rediculous. First contact will probably be by accident or radio signals.
It makes sense to transmit a beacon so distant life can locate us instead of monitoring TV commercial broadcasts from the early days of TV, like Mr. Whipple("80s) squeezing toilet tissue or some jock with crotch rot or a lady with feminine hygiene odor.
If we do make contact, I do fear many people will be scared and on the defensive, possibly hostile as they are with domestic aliens, thanks to Hollywood and Orson Wells.
I think the use of home PC's are a great way to use dormant CPU's to search the vast spectrum of frequencies. Who knows how contact will first be made, I think this is a good start......Keep up the good work everyone! |
