Personal background
My wife and I live in South East New Mexico. I love math and science. It is very important to me for the continuance of scientific experiments and projects for the gaining of knowledge and betterment of the quality of life. I am more than willing to donate my computer time to help with the scientific community's research needs. If this helps in any way, then I am most blessed to have participated in filling that need. About the "what if?" of my allowing the research to be conducted on my computer is going to yield some great results? Well, maybe not, sure. But then again the more you volunteer the greater the chance of that happening will be.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I run SETI@Home to try to help the Astrophysics community try to answer the pressing question, “Are we alone?”

I believe that it is an absolutely fascinating conceptual idea to search for ET intelligences in this fashion. After all, if they are advance, they will need some sort of communication system.

From a realistic standpoint, I think that it will be nearly impossible to accomplish. But, then again, it sure could happen. However, it will be better to try and fail than not to try at all.
