I've been fiddling with computers for over 20 years.
Keen bushwalker (hiker) and musician (multi-disciplinary performances).
(Check http://www.pcug.org.au/~apurdam if you are really interested.)
I'm back at seti@home for one computer 'cos it can't do the large workunits in the cancer research projects.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Given the size of the universe (and I mean big), it's quite possible that we are not the only things alive in it. I just hope they're not like the dudes in Mars Attacks!
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
