Sorry fellas, it's a bit OT, but I can't help but wonder if I'm the only one that is still in High School trying to convince my friends for the SETI effort. They just all look at me kinda funny and say they're gonna go play some CS. I'm not the biggest and most active Seti member here, but every lil' bit helps... Go TEAM:):):):)

Warthog912,

I am not 17 (cough cough 35 cough), but I know you are not the only 17 year old on the TeAm. There are others. As far as having your friends look at you weird when you ask them to run Seti that happens at any age.

As far as not being the biggest or most active, that isn't important. What is important is that you are giving what you can to the team. And we appreciate it :D

Team AnandTech has a lot of young people.
I think Virge is a bit younger than you.
Anand is just a bit older than you.
Then there are the old guys like me. (42)

I am 17, and i try to persuade all my mates to run Seti, and a few of them are, but some look at me funnily!

Haven't asked the g/f yet, but the amount of time we talk on MSN at nights/weekends she could get a couple of WUs a week on her old computer!

All of my friends and coworkers make fun of me for doing SETI. They ask if the project has found anything and what I get out of it. They just don't understand... ;)

EDIT: I'm 34 in case you're wondering.

hey i'm 17 as well. I would get my friends to install seti for me but they either already are for confusedBW or if i install it within a week or so they are suddenly changed to running it for confused :| ;)

I just about have college asimilated though (college for us is like upper highschool for you, we call your version of college uni) so i can't complain :)

I guess I count as young too although I'm now an ancient:p 21.;) Got a few friends of mine to run it but mostly my family let me put it on theirs and didn't even ask what it was.:)

Just under 36 here and already crunching for the team more than three years. I started out at the very young age of 32. :D
