Personal background
Im a Sergeant in the UK Army, working in The Netherlands, my 'adopted' country for the next couple of years and hence the reason my SETI country shows up as Netherlands!!

I originally come from the North East of England and there wasnt really much to do there when I left school, so I packed my bags and joined up two weeks after I finished school. Since then I've travelled across most of Europe including completing operational duties in Northern Ireland and Bosnia.

I enjoy building and repairing computers as well as playing games online, a different way to get to meet people...shoot them and have them shoot you back!!

My wife and two daughters are always interested in how we are doing in the SETI statistics and its thanks to their support and the support of a great group of friends that I am one of the highest output crunchers in The Netherlands and recently broke through into the Top 1000 Worldwide.

SETI is fun.....thats the main thing. A little bit of competition is always good and I am a member of the UK team 'PC Format', a totally loony bunch of people!!
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
If we are the only advanced life form in the entire universe, its a pretty big waste of space. I wont say intelligent life as I think we all have a long way to go before we can regard the human race as intelligent!!

I probably wont live to see the day that we reach out beyond our own little place in space to find another home, but given the opportunity to have a place in such an amazing voyage I hope that when the time comes, people will take the opportunity and go for it.

We never know how the future is going to work out, lets just hope it doesnt follow the same path as the history of the human race.
