I am a computer engineer by trade and have been doing seti under various account names for a few years now under different accounts. I have set this account up for my new Opteron based box to keep the stats separate.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
In an infinate universe with infinate galaxys, stars and planets the improbable almost becomes a certainty. Hence anything you can imagine will propably be happening in some place at some time.
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.
