Personal background
i have my eye on you. i live in Guelph ON with two young geeks and a cat. growing up on a farm in the Northern Ontario Boreal Forest, i became a sci-fi fan at a young age. seemed the easiest way to broaden my horizons and ponder the big questions, given the environment i grew up in. while i don't read a lot of sci-fi these days, i still revisit favorite episodes of s.t.n.g, deep space nine, and bab.five. also am a big fan of the new b.s.g. i think it's brilliant. and speaking of brilliant, seti@home falls into that category - but more on that later. what else do i like? it's so nice of you to ask. in no particular order - 'too much coffee man' cartoons (check out the archives at tmcm.com) and the lovely zen-like 'mutts' cartoons. 'what the bleep do' we know is a fun-house meld of new-age spiritualism and quantum physics that i get a real kick out of. i like watching dragon flies and frogs. like a good cup of coffee and a crossword puzzle, buffy the vampire slayer (what can i say?) hiking, tai chi and great long digressions.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
i am happy to join the seti@home program and give a little of my p.c. time to something bigger than emailing and playing mah jong! is there life out there? there is little doubt in my mind. the more we are able to observe how vast and diverse the universe is, the more i am convinced. i quess the question remaining is what is that life like. one of the scientist in 'what the bleep do we know' suggests that if history is any indication, a lot of what we now believe to true, will in the future, be proven false. (think of past beliefs ie. the earth is flat) it makes life interesting don't ya think? to ponder the possibilities?
