I joined this back in 1999...
But some how I lost interest in donating my power Bill for the search of ET -.-
(if we find something it will but so far away that I don't survive a first contact, so f**k up)

In this times there are much reasonable projects, like helping to find a cure for cancer etc.

I was part of the Folding@Home project for a while...but they stopped supporting the "extreme" version of the software for my vid card and restricted it to new and more powerful ones, so i stopped.

I think it's better to donate CPU power at something like climate prediction or the cancer & aids ones, If we find ET what living good will that do for us? We all know they are out there somewhere, maybe they don't even want to hear from us, we are probably the "irritating" relatives for them.....

LOL, well I don't care much about climate prediction. But cancer sounds like a good cause.
Shall we make a team for that then? Or is there one already?

Well I specified health related...that's more of a humanitarianism type of thing. not that its less important, but we were talking health so...
I just don't want to be creating 8 Indigo teams
