lol ya i am a old timer. when i frist heard about it i could see the posabilty for future research in other fields. think of all the computers that set on screan saver all night. i tried some of the medical research a few years back but i found them to be to intrusive. with seti driver set on low i dont ever notice it taking away from what i am doing. i realy dont think our tech is far enough alone to where we have much of a chance to find anything.
If there is a more worthy project out there that will work like seti driver i would be willing to move to that if we did it as a team.
sorry but its 6 am and time for me to go to bed

We (as a team) were considering at one point what to do after SETI 1 ended and couldn't decide.  Some of the projects look interesting but many of us object to the proprietary nature of the programs.  Then again some of them allow the people behind the system to jump you to another project without even giving you a choice.  

I also don't think it likely that we will find anything.  But it is worth the chance.   The attempt has already proven the practicality of distributed volunteer processing to help scientific research.  

On a more personal level I just achieved a goal

 Your rank out of 4939040 total users is:    7994th place.  

Top 8000 and on to 7500.

Well, I have just added a 350mhz P2 to the mix. My average time will probably start going up now.  It seems to be pushing them out about every 14 - 15 hours.

You mean my Nationstates nation?  If so I bet you feel silly now  

At present nothing "big" is going on.  Just a slow steady climb.    Feel free to start something.  Seriously, some of the highest points of activity came when two (or more) people were in a race up the ranks.

 What do you expect of a Klingon?

You have to start somewhere.

Persist and you will grow.  Rather like here on the SETI team.
