FaD: Welcome budsel83, Drakkon, and Xanth to the team

This is AWESOME! 😀 Our TeAm needs new members very badly. We've been getting our asses stomped lately and the only cure is to grow the TeAm. As in SETI, it's all the smaller contributors that do most of the work. It's never good to just have a few big players on a team who do most of the work.....hundreds of 1-2 PC users is the way to have a team IMO.

No matter what you have crunching for us....THANKS for joining the TeAm! 🙂

I am in total agreement!!!

but I might add ... hundreds of 1-2 PC users with patience and persistence ... we need new members but we need to encourage those who join us to continue with us long term and keep those computers crunching for cures.

 
Don't worry, I'm single CPU worker too.

Although I don't know about the patience thing, because I just switch on the computer and it automatically runs 😛 So I don't have a reason to not run them in the background.

Oh yeah thanks for joining the TeAm! More and more users and we're going to put up some distance from TechIMO 😀

None intended ...

Patience means sticking with the project through adversity and problems with the client. The cause is right! The software and the implentation has problems, at times. Patience means sticking with the program and crunching for weeks, months, years ... hoping that your computer finds the "magic bullet" that we all search for for many of the maladies of mankind.

Persistence means sticking with the project without any visible indication that your efforts make a difference. Know that they will. Even if you do not find the cures, your computers help eliminate those potential drugs that will NOT be a cure from the list. That, too, is extremely important. Eliminating the negatives may actually be much more important than finding the positives. Every negative that is eliminated means that labs can concentrate more efforts on the best candidates, more quickly, and more accurately. Lab time is the bottleneck. If we can reduce that bottleneck, we do our job most excellently.
