Hello friends...

I'd like to ask for help from my friends in the Seti@Home project.

First-thanks to the Mods and Fred for allowing this thread for the 3rd year in a row.

I am deeply involved with the American Cancer Society and their Relay for Life. This event raises money that goes directly for local Cancer Research.

In March, my brother's mother-in-law Elaine Sharp passed from metastatic cancer and I participate in memory of her. I also was informed of the passing on 4/21 of the life-long friend I participated in honor of last year, Chris Clemm. He was 46 years old.

Last year I raised $3000+ personally. This year as of 4/28/2015 I've raised $1600 already and have a personal goal of $2500. If I reach my goal this year, I will have raised $10,000 personally in 4 years. That is HUGE!

I am asking that if you want to help me, please go to the link below and give. For people in the US it's tax deductible and it goes directly to the ACS.

I appreciate any and all assistance anyone is wishing to give.

Thank you.
Pete aka Blurf

I was asked today if I've put in any of my own money. In the vein of transparency I have donated $240 this year.
