Personal background
Hmmm....well I am a 25 year old web developer living and working in Australia. I am a part owner of an internet company called ABCDEX Pty Ltd (www.abcdex.com) and as per every company like ours we specialize in anything from websites to multimedia presentation. I enjoy travelling, snow skiing and the usual exciting stuff which internet people like ie red dwarf and of cause the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy series (well anything Douglas Adams related). I bet I am the only on in the Seti program who like cheap BBC comedies :)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think the first encounter we will have (if we haven't done so before) is with an alien civilisation composed of cyrstaline material. We will probably kill their leader with a chisel as we take a sample back to earth. On earth the sample will be looked at and declared inanimate due to the alien having a lifespan of billions of years. Either that or as so many comedy sci-fi writters have written (HHGTG, MIB etc) we are already be surrounded by them in New York of all places.

Yes we should transmit beacons. Although if someone is listening then maybe they won't want to meet us. What we should send....hmmm, maybe the movie "contact" was correct. Definately no John Denver music is we ever want anyone to visit us (although if they turn out to be bad aliens I recommend every radio station plays his all time best hits).

Why do I run Seti. Firstly out of curiosity, secondly if someone is to find them it would be fun if is me (finding aliens is the only way to get on the cover of "Time" without killing millions or creating a monopoly in business now a days).
