Well, I'm a Brit who now lives in Canada (the UK wasn't cold enough). I work for Shaw Cable as a cable guy installing TV and Internet. My hobbies include motorcycles, computer games and drinking coffee.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I believe it is very arrogant as a race to believe that we are the only one's out there. I am also still of the opinion that the proof that there is intelligent life out there is that they haven't contacted us yet (although the conspiracy theorists would have you believe otherwise!).
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.
