Personal background
I am 28 and I live on Grand Cayman, which is the largest of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands are made up of Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. These islands are located between Jamaica and Cuba, approximately 500 miles South of Miami., Florida, and 200 miles North-West of Jamaica. I have always been very interested in extraterrestrial life. I have seen a glowing object in the sky a distance off, in a Northerly direction, that seems to just hover for a while and then just disappears. All that remains is a film of dust or a cloud of smoke. I've seen it several times over the past three or four months. It is usually always in roughly the same spot. I have a friend who has seen it on at least two of the occassions that I have.
I plan to buy a telescope in the very near future and try to learn as much as possible about what is out there. Science was my best subject when I was in primary school, I usually got 100% in my tests. I have since drifted from science, but I feel that I am more scientifically inclined. I won't settle for the explanation that it was "just something man made". There HAS TO BE more than just us in this universe (or multiverse...
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think extraterrestrial life exists and is very abundant. We, as humans, have to be able to be more open minded and receptive to what is there for us to see, feel and sense otherwise. As for possible benefits or dangers? Well, as soon as I know, I'll let you know.

I feel that humans should transmit beacons that contain information such as the chemical makeup of out planets topograpghy, etc. as well as minerals, etc. that are readily available.
