And those are usually disgarded as usless. SETI 2 and Astropulse look better, but still. Woopeteedoo. Even if they find something relevant it will take hundreds of years to do anything about it. By then we will not have needed SETI at all. Waste of time. Better off giving money to NASA for their real explorations of other planets.
I would rather crunch for something that might help in the near future. Maybe even my or my kids lifetime. D.F. has that potential and the client is better than the other Folding projects.

never really though of it that way, you're probably right.
i wouldn't mind getting into the folding stuff... i think it's a good idea. i'll check it out, i always wanted to do folding as well, but never knew where to find it. for some reason i violated my own rules and didn't ask google. i'll check it out
