Personal background
Hi!

My name is Robert Pelletier. I am 19, I live in Granby, Quebec, Canada.
I'm studying in computer science, and I work for a small non-profit compagny.

I have arround 33 machines computing for me, I'm so freak that there is a bunch of Pentiums 75 running SETI :)

I'm currently doing arround 15 units/day (sometimes 20, depends when the old pentiums finish the work :)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I'm running SETI@Home to help finding (or not finding) extra-terrestrial life.Some people thinks that this is crazy, since a more evolved civilization would have better technology, and we would'nt be able to track it.

BUT, since the universe is so big, a signal sent 100 years ago could be heard by aliens in 2000 years, and we would have an answer arround the year 4101... this is pure speculation :)

What I mean.. is that if we listen, we have the possibility to find. If we just go and don't care, we'll never know.

I don't believe we will find something, or at least not something really interresting. The best we could find are fossils of mono-cellular organism, or some of them alive.

But at least... we are listening!
