Personal background
I should be sitting in the International Space Station right now sucking down a pack of jello, but instead I am in the small Cajun town of Eunce, Louisiana, where I work at a local Catholic High School doing development work.

I've alway been interested in space and when the space shuttle first appeared on the scene I was hooked.

I have Seti@home running on four computers (two at my office and two at home). It used to take me close to 20 hours to complete a work unit (40 hours on one at my office). I just got a 2.0 ghz Pentium 4 at my office and now it only takes me 5 hours to process a unit. I'm completing almost 4 units a day on that computer!
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Yes, I believe that there is life out there. Why would God build such an enormous universe and stick little old us only on one planet? The benefits for finding extraterrestrail life are tremendous. We may find a race more advanced, that has found cures for cancer or found cleaner, safer energy. The only drawback would be to find a race that needs to feed on human flesh to survive! (I know...I know...too many sci-fi movies)

I run Seti@home as a way of helping. I know I'll never step foot on the moon, or even in a shuttle, but I know if I can run SETI on my computers at home and work, I've done all I can to help.
