My boss has been running this program for years and being very competetive, I simply wanted to see if I could ever catch him. And every day I creep a couple units closer to his total.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I believe everyone should contribute something to their fellow man. This is an important project that could benefit all of mankind, so I feel it is probably the most noteworthy contribution I can make.
I am reminded of a phrase my Grandfather used to say: "Many hands make for light work."
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
