I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, I'm addicted to Seti as well as RC5-72 and I really like the idea of distributed computing.I started a new club team "Team Seti USA" in May of 2002 with the hope's that we could see a club team from the USA make it into the top rankings. Were moving right up the ladder and now are in the top 40 teams overall. Seti@Home recently added our site to there Selected group and user pages Check out our team and help us climb towards the top 25 teams!

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I do think that extraterrestrial life exists. Seti is a good step in finding ET. Hopefully technology will expand so the space program and others can begin searching deeper into space.
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.
