Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I don't remember my exact reasons for helping out so long ago, but it seems like a nice thing to do.
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.
