Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think that anyone who doesn't belive that there is life elsewhere in the cosmos, just hasn't thought about it for more than 1 second. Its pretty much infinite everything out there.
We will discover it when we have the appropriate technology to see/hear/visit other life.
How we do it is... well I'm working on it.
The benefits could be endless, new/clean/undiminishing power sources/methods, new building technology, its really only limited by ours ( and theirs) imaginations.
As for the danagers well anywhere from borgism (did I just invent a new term?) to only 8 planets orbiting the Sun, but hey at least we would know that there is somthing out there for a split second.

I think that we have been since TV broadcasts started if I'm not mistaken, as for the content, well its a bit late to be worrying about that now, lets hope that the life is intelligent enough to NOT jump in their spacecraft when the first pictures/radio gets to them, and that they wait abit to see whats going on with those crazy Earth people.

I run Seti because I want to know. The project needs more resources.
