Ahh, the quandary which has plagued internet users since the dawn of time. What to tell a total stranger about myself. Alright well I like to think the way I write this will tell you at least as much as what I write. I am a student double majoring in Psychology and Philosophy at a New Zealand university. Coincidentally enough I also live and was born in New Zealand, though I have set foot beyond its shores on a decent number of occasions. I don't much care for travel though, not in any serious geographic sense anyway. It's more important to me who I am with rather than where I am (and for you philosophers out there picking apart my words, no where I am is not completely unimportant. I'd prefer not to meet the person of my dreams in an irradiated sewage treatment plant.) As the more perceptive of you have probably already guessed people and my interactions therewith are my hobby and major reason for waking up in the morning. On that note I shall leave the rest to your imagination and this picture of me stabbing at my camera wielding compatriot with a barbecue fork.

| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I run Seti@Home for two reasons:
Reason the first - That assuming we did indeed discover extraterrestrial intelligence it would be one of the defining moments of mankind and assuming we absolutely proved its non-existence it would be a similarly defining moment. Seti is my best bet right now for contributing toward a resolution of those conflicting ends.
Second reason - My PC simply has nothing better to do with its time. Its a gaming machine for someone who doesn't play games like he used to, so basically its now a file server with horrendous amounts of processing power and RAM (for a desktop system) so since it is on all day it might as well do something useful with its idle processing cycles. |
