I am 33 years old and live in the north eastern US. More can be found out about me from my website which I've updated substantially since being laid off due to September 11th. http://pages.map.com/sodapop/
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I have been using computers now for over two decades. Setiathome has to be the most productive use of 'idle' time I have seen so far. So much for non productive screen savers! :-) Besides that its fun to watch.
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.
