Personal background
I'm 23 and live in São Paulo, Brazil. In 2002 I graduated in Computer Science, after 4 years of hard study... While working or having fun in front of my computer I like to listen to Heavy Metal music (Iron Maiden, Metallica, Helloween, Gamma Ray, and so on). Of course Seti@Home is always running, it would be nice to find some ET... but first I want to find a girlfriend (human of course)!
Sometimes I like look at the sky during the night, exploring with my binoculars and telescope. Then I think how would be an extraterrestrial civilization. Once I asked myself if there would be intelligent creatures from Orion constelation, while looking at its stars... so far from us... Then I dreamt about the day man will have technology to cross the Universe and reach the stars... When I woke up I wished to be still alive this day.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1. Of course exists! The Universe is almost infinite, there are trillions of galaxies, each one with billions of stars... The Sun is just one among all of then, and there's a planet full of life around it... why only here? Deny this possibility is ignorance!
Maybe the humans have already discovered, but it was hidden from us...
Hope it would bring only benefits, but it could be dangerous too.

2. Yes I think we should. Messages in many different languages, pictures from us, our cities, the Earth and information to find us. If we won't exist anymore when it was found, it would become a record of our existence.

3. I run SETI@home because I think it is something important for all of us. Find intelligent creatures outside the Earth would be the most important discovey ever made in history. It could bring answers to many questions that today are a mistery. I would be very proud to help it become true.
