| Personal background |
|---|
I'm from England, but now I live in San Antonio, Texas, USA. I'm 30 and a computer technician. My hobbies are building PCs and playing bass guitar. I love physics and anything space-related.
The pc I use is one I just built myself. It's a Pentium 4 2.4GHz 533MHz FSB with 1GB PC2100 DDR RAM and an 80GB HDD running at 7200RPM with an 8MB cache. In short, it's FAST! Perfect for SETI number-crunching! It's also lit from the inside with 2 blue cold-cathode neon light units, displaying the P4 processor through the case's side window, and cooled with 12 fans. It's sweeeet! |
| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
| I am SURE extraterrestrial life exists. I don't know how we'll discover it. Maybe it will discover us instead! We could learn a lot from them, assuming they want us to share their knowledge. Not all species out there might be sociable! I don't think we should transmit beacons, although our radio and tv broadcasts already act as one. I run Seti@Home because it makes me feel good to contribute to the knowledge of mankind, even though I'm only playing a small part. I wish the screensaver came with something that would show me where in the sky my work unit came from. Luckily I have Starry Night Backyard so I have that facility, but it would be cool if the screensaver either came with a simple program that pointed out the location on a star map, or perhaps a webpage could be created that performs that function? |
