Personal background
Im a 30y/o communications wkr. I like to travel and sight see, also thrill seeking, such as sky diving and the like. I've always been interested in science and I've been reading sscience mags and articles for years. When I read about seti@home in the NY Times, I thought it would be a great chance to take part in science. I would like to go a steep further and get a formal endorsement from the company I wk for, Verizon. They have millions of computers running 24/7 and they're only being used mabey 10% of the time, if that much.....what a waste. It would be nice to use the other 90% for a worthy project like seti@home.home. In the 90's i was Space Exploration Committi Chairman w/ the New York Young Republican Club. During my time as Chairman, I held presentations w/ Robert Zubrin who spoke on "Mars Direct" and Rick Tumblinson who spoke on "Commercialized Space Exploration and Development" Im a member of The National Space Society, Space Exploration Day, The Planetary Society, The Mars Society, and The American Association for the Advancement of Science(AAAS).

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Theres 400b stars in our galexcy and 100b galecies we can see so far. Well letss see...100b X 400B...that a lot of chances for life out there. I have no idea when well meet them. If they're at the same stage of tech development, it wont be any time soon since it will take quite a while for their radio waves to reach us. If they're more advanced, who knows if they're even still using radio? I think if we do find intelegent life out there, the human species will probably mature as a whole and overcome our differences in a hurry.If anyone wants to chat, my AOL instant messager name is mal495. Happy Hunting.
