Personal background
Well, what can I say. I'm just another human being lost in this small planet who feels more ignorant as he learns more.

I love anything that has to do with science, art and history.

I also love anything that has to do with computers (2D, 3D, Apache web server, FTP and mail servers, PHP scripts, MySQL, Digital audio/video, etc), I am now a reformed PC user, I am giving up windows switching to linux forever, I just got fed up of licences and commercial appz, people telling you that if you don't have the latest commercial software you are lost, making you spend more money for practically the same thing only with the difference that it's got one or two new buttons...it's RIDICULOUS!, now I run Linux (Suse 10.1 64bit) and I feel much happier with it, I'm starting to use blender3D and YAFRAY for all my 3D projects, and of course when I have time, I'll crunch a few SETI@home units...

VIVA la OPEN SOURCE!!!

Oh yeah! I forgot!!! (I'm 32 yrs old)

Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Q: Why do I run SETI@home?
A: To help

Q: What are your views about the project?
A: I am very open minded about the project. Anything can happen...

Q: Any suggestions?
A: To the general public, who keep ranting about the project and
the software, how they always say that it's too slow, server
sucks, piece of crap!, and whatever else you want to add, just
crunch and stop complaining, there are worst things in life to
complain about. Leave the complaining to the guys at seti, they
are doing their job, and a great one! Thanks to all of you at seti
for letting us help you out with this project.
