Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
Why do i run SETI. For the thrill of it, probably after watching \\"Contact\\" movie to many times :)
What are your views about the project: I think its a great idea. I mean we dont have the know-how yet to build crafts that can go faster \\"Notice i said Faster\\" than the speed of light. So SETI is another way of reaching out there.

Any suggestions: Yes i reckon if we did find aliens or other races that live close to us, they would come from the following:
THE STAR \\"ALPHA CENTAURI\\", 4.2 LIGHT YEARS FROM EARTH. THIS STAR IS VERY SIMILAR TO OUR SUN. THE CHANCES FOR LIFE ARE EXCELLENT.
\\"CANIS MAJOR\\", 8 LIGHT YEARS FROM EARTH. \\"SIRIUS\\" IS THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE NIGHT SKY. A NEW PLANET HAS BEEN DISCOVERED ORBITING THE STAR \\"GLEISE 229\\" NEAR THERE!
THE STAR \\"ARTURUS\\", 37 LIGHT YEARS FROM EARTH. A PLANET HAS BEEN DISCOVERED ORBITING THERE!
