Naddy, SETI@home ran short of signals to analyse early on,
and instead of sending out a notice that they would get back
with us as soon as they had new signals, they sent out the same
work packages over and over. I received one that I myself had
previously analysed. Even tho I think searching for ET signals
is a far more worthwhile goal than GIMPS or even protein folding,
I determined that day that SETI@home had gotten their last
donated clock cycle from me. spike
