I'm just another person supporting this project. I have been in the computer biz for over 22 years and still have a small strand of sanity remaining. Almost all of my years have been using DEC (Now HP) VAX and Alpha systems as a systems manager or systems administrator. The computer biz has been good to me and has taken me literally to all four corners of the US on work and alowed me to see some of the world as well. I am also a musician and spend not as many hours as I'd like to playing and sitting down with CuBase, Cakewalk, SoundForge and AcidPro. Unfortunately the demands of those pieces of software require that I take SETI down when I use them. If you must know or really care I run multiple SETI systems made up of flavors of Windows 2000 and Linux.
I have other interests, but that's too much to go into and would certainly bore most people into a manic state. I mean really... Do you care that much when you read these things?

To answer the questions...
Yes, I believe that life exists out there. Actually I think they have already been here. For us to think that we are alone would be a tremendous statement of arrogance and devaluation of the universe. On the other hand, who knows, we all may be wrong and we may be alone. I don't think so though.
Should we transmit a beacon. The morons that want to advertise on the moon using lasers obviously think so! Personally I don't think that we should. We are too infantile as a people (a generalization) to deal with someone should they show up because we left the porch light on.
My views on the project? I think it is a noble cause and is with merit. We are finally taking a solid look around our neighborhood to see if anybody else has built a house on or street or even around the block. |
