Personal background
I live in Helsinki, Finland and I was born in September 1976. I am studying in Helsinki polytechnic, faculty of technology, stydy programme of electrical engineering and telecommunications. My orientarion option is electronics and automation and one day I will be an engineer of automation.

On my spare time I like to train at a gym, walk or jog and read. And it is not that unusual to find me sitting by my pc with my fingers on the keyboard - IRC has taken the control ;)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I think that there are many possibilities for life existing in this universe. It would be quite strange, that us humans would be the only "intelligent" form of life. This universe is simply too big for only one curious lifeform. I do think that there has to be a lifeform in this universe - or even quite many such lifeforms which we would call intelligent.

How about my belief in finding ET? Our universe is larger than most of us can imagine. And even though there are numerous computers going trough the data collected by radio telescopes, the possibilities for us finding something are quite small. And if we would find something, the message could be sent hundreds of thousands of years ago. Maybe it would be sent from a planet which was about to destruct. So I do not think that a radio "phonecall" with the sender would be possible. Not at least with our present technology. But if we would find something, it would be a huge step. Maybe not in the meaning of getting new technologies, possibly that would be impossible. But finaly we would have somekind of a evidence that we are no alone. That there are, or there have been others.

And as there is a project like this and I have a pc, that has some sparetime - why not use it to this. After all the time is wasted only when it has not been used at all.
