Personal background
I am an US Airforce Vet. 59 yrs old and retired. I worked as a contractor for the DOD with the company called L-3 Communications in Greenville Texas. I love astronomy and believe that we are not alone. I worked on recon aircraft as an aircraft maintenance tech and really liked my work. I would like to help as much as possible in the search for life anywhere!! If my help is needed please don't hesitate to call on me I am waiting. Meanwhile my service is to this country and the best way I can serve.
I am originally from south Texas by the Mexican boarder close to Brownsville , my home town of Raymondville is about 45 miles north of there. I joined the Airforce at the age of 17 in 1980 and became a jet engine mechanic. Then when I got out in late 1984 and I started building Atlas and Titan rockets for the government working for General Dynamics which later got bought out by Lockeed Martin. I then joined the team here in Greenville working for Raytheon , then L-3 bought the facility. So here I stayed in the Greater Dallas Metroplex. All my kids are grown and made me a grandpa. I have seen many things in my time and know little. Wisdom comes to those who learn from their mistakes.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I believe that we cannot be the only life with intelligence. We will find other life its just a matter of time, if it isn't already here or in contact. Life exists elsewhere in this universe Of that I'm sure, but when we find it ...or it finds us , it will be the most exciting and scariest time that this world will endure. We must prepare for the moment and prepare for both good and the most deadly of creatures that come to ones imagination. Please do not think that I want to kill ET. That is the worst thing that could occur at first contact.. But we must prepare for anything and everything, because mankind has only this world to support them. We must be careful in the communications on whether we should render our location not knowing ET's intentions.
