First of all....I don't understand anything I'm looking at. But I saw something and haven't seen it again. It looked like a green light at the top of one of the spikes, shaped like a comet or sideways teardrop. I fell asleep looking at it. Is this a common thing, and has anyone else seen this? How can you tell when something unusual is showing up? Pat |

Ive been running this on multiple computers for a few months now. While I dont mind running it, it does raise the concern if anyone has actually found ANYTHING at all other than just static or noise. Does seti@home program alert you when it finds something or what? I don't know if it will alert you but I think you can search the berkely site to see if they found anything yet. Plus it may be years before we actually stumble upon something. Linkspub Directory Directory Junction |

There could be a better job of putting out within the client what it means if we have found 135 results. I would like to know where and how good are these "results" and what happens to them. I understand that only a very few are pursued further but whose are being looked at?? if I found a particularly promising result I might like to know about it. I might also like to know why we have only data from ARECIBO from 2003 and not from other initiatives which are coming on line. Would also like to know where we are looking and what are the promising results in each sector. This would take away the sense I get from the boards that most of us don't know what we are doing with the number crunching. Not being impatient-- just want the good RAP on the fact that we are proceeding in an orderly and efficient matter-build this into the Client |

A couple of weeks or so ago, before sending my newly bought PC to service because of a malfunction, I had a WU delivered to the server. In it there was both a Gaussian having a score of about 6 (6.02) as well as a triplet with a score of about 13 (13.02) - but not identical numbers following that). It was in the same area as a WU delivered some time earlier with a Gaussian score of 5.46. I have been returning a lot of triplets that have scores above 5 and 10. Also been returning gaussian that had a power of over 10!(10.165935516357), chrip_rate: -40.029729531099. Highest triplet power: 12.295342445374, chrip_rate: -27.798063850781 "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible".

Just returned a pulse of 7.668270 but on the screen saver, there is no graph to show it. In mapview it also just shows a line but its flat...but it is there...what might that be? A flatlined pulse? (no pun intended) :) "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible". Hebrews 11.3 |

Also this is pretty cool: UFO Maps. Reports sightings of UFOs as they happen, using Google Maps. Pretty neat! "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible". Hebrews 11.3 |

Also not that I am starting to see triplets around the Star: [http://www.extrasolar.net/planettour.asp?StarCatId=&PlanetId=111]HD 10697 or 109 PISCIUM[/url]. According to the link provided...a planet orbiting that star called: 109 PISCIUM B that has the "Planet at Earthlike Temperatures at Mean Orbital Distance." Hmmm....I wonder ;-) "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible". Hebrews 11.3 |
