Everytime I read an article like this that entails a large amount of data and calculations, I wonder if it could be a new BOINC project on the horizon.

You should suggest a better way of expressing it, instead of just complaining

Looking back at my post I can see how it would be taken in a negative light.
This was not my intention. Just trying to use what little wit I have. All too often come up short. :)
Should have said something like ‘Good to see research proceed in this area.’
Thanks for the slap. Will think a little longer on my next post!
