Below is what I got in an email from someone@rosetta@home:
Good afternoon,I'm happy to be writing to let you know one of your Rosetta@home results was significant enough to be published! Postdoc Rhiju Das has submitted these latest results to the PNAS (http://www.pnas.org/) and he and Dr. Baker would like to recognize those of you receiving this message.

So, is this a really cool thing ??

Markfw900 what do you use all the computers for you have btw? Lots of CPU power to be just "pieces of computer parts" most have. Besides Rosetta of course :D

Thanks all. I replied and asked him to send me a link when its published. I will reply then if he does.

And here is the first reply:
Evening Mark,
As soon as I get word about a publication date and how to view the article I'll forward it along. Hopefully you and the folks in your Anandtech thread enjoy it :) I've been reading Anandtech for ages, great to see your team so involved with R@H!

Cheers,
Ethan

Congrats Mark! :thumbsup::D:thumbsup:

This is why I love Rosetta, they keep you informed and make sure you get credit. The best communication of any project I have seen.

I quit rosetta when they lowered stat scores making it unpossible to catch up to the leaders. Good to see science being accomplished, but a lot of us still like stats too.

Tallbill that quote in sig is not from Baghdad, its from some famous person. I think maybe FDR or someone

I think that what TallBill is saying in his sig is that he is posting from Baghdad not that the quote is from Baghdad.

The quote is actually from Albert Einstein. It is similar to an Edmund Burke quote "All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing."
