Profile: Anthony Quatroni

Personal background
I'm a 40-year-old computer geek from New Rochelle, NY, that has been involved in electronics and computers since I was in my early teens. My hobbies are computers, (obviously), lifting weights and exercising, listening to music, working (yes, it's a hobby for me), and watching Sci Fi movies (when I have the time).
I run a home-based internet and consulting business and also play video games in my spare time.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI@home because I think it's a good effort and the possible rewards are great. I hope to someday hear that some sign of other life has been found. I am of the belief that there simply MUST be some life in the trillions of star systems in this universe. It's just common-sense when you look at the law of averages and the sheer amount of material the universe has to work with to create life.
There IS life out there! Is it intelligent? Now THAT'S the question isn't it? And the whole idea of SETI.
One of my little sayings about this situation goes like this:
"The Creator of this universe made sure that the distances between stars and galaxies is so great, that we will need to find out all there is to know about ourselves and the physics of our area of space before we are able to go visit someone elses."
If you think about this, it is true. Of course, it's also a little saddening that the distance between stars (and galaxies) is so great, and one of my greatest hopes is that we as a civilization can survive long enough to figure out everything there is to know about the physics of our immmediate space and discover the means to travel to someone else's.
'nuff said. . .
