Personal background
Hi there, I'm Chris and currently work as a Civil Engineer. I live in Telford, UK and have done so for the last 5 years.

I enjoy reading (Tom Clancy, Tolken, Jack McDevitt), computers and PS3(playing games on them), music (rock and metal mostly) and movies. I love Monty Python and The Goons.
I will eat almost anything once... I enjoy traditional ales and beers.
I like cars a lot, I own my own 1989 MINI though it is in need of some serious TLC and cant wait till I can afford a Nissan Skyline GT-R R34...(still many years in the future).

As you are probably all asleep by now I better shut up... enough about me!

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
With all the space out there I would be very disappointed if there wasnt somthing out there... however I do not know if we would be better off finding out who or what they might be. Will it bring World peace... I doubt it, will it bring World destruction... I hope not!

As to humans sending out a signal to attract the attention of others, well we have been doing so in the form of radio and television signals for over 30 years. Okay these may be quite a slow signal to transmit but they may prove to show anyone watching them the true nature of humans.

Why Seti... I can hardly say I use my computer to its full capacity and I dont have time to use it often, so why not put it to use cracking a few numbers... It also feels kind of good to be part of a global community working together.
Keep at it people, only time will tell...
