My name is Inan and I've been doing this off and on for about 5 years now. Due to a system crash and subsequent redo I lost my last account with Seti so I am starting over. I am 30 and live in Seattle W.A.. Right now I am a security guard with computer building as a hobby.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run it to see if we as a community can find those signals that I know for a fact other intelligent races out there are sending out as, if nothing else; stuff from their daily lives. I mean come on, we cant be the only species pumping all sorts of signals out into space. We very well may come across some other planets soap operas for all we know but it would be a step in the right direction.
