I think I'll provide weekly information on the team i.e how many members, how much data has past and what position we are in the league. I know you can look yourself but perhaps if it's up on the site it will encourange non members to join up. What do you think?

seti has been p***ing in the wind for years. if there were aliens, they would either keep radio silence (a good idea, when you think about it) or broadcast a big HELLO WORLD.
its a much better use of resources to help towards cancer treatments, seeing as 1 in 3 people will get cancer of some kind.

In it's whole history I think Seti has found one possible message which is about 300 light years away and they've sent every bit of radio information to it in the hope of aliens find it. By then anyone involved in it will be dead and the aliens will be getting out of date information.

I think this is a far better use of all the extra power from your computer

I'm using the basic set up and it's working fine for me but the proteome folding program is more CPU intensive. You get points every time your set of results is sent off to the research guys (done automatically)

wormpaul 16-02-2005 07:58 PM

alright...

I`m now at 21%...hopefully get my first points when i reach the 100% (maybe in a few days...)

xoopx 16-02-2005 08:59 PM

the proteome one isnt actually for cancer, but general drugs.
