No, I'm saying the work units and seti@home are reletivly close to being
complete.
I've been crunching for exactly 2.808 years, not to fairweather.  I'm
sticking around untill it's done.  I just want suggestions on where to go
next.
Chill out freakout.....

I am at 4.185 years personally! I must have misunderstood your
message, sorry!
We will be doing Boinc for real hopefully by the end of 2004. Seems
the AstroPulse units work and report fine but the Seti ones are giving
them some trouble.
If you don't already Boinc then here is the web page to get started:
http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/ap/
Just create an account and then download the cruncher and start
crunching. Of course until the Beta is over nothing counts for any
credits. We have been crunching the same units for awhile and they
seem to be recycling thru again.
Some of the units take an extraordinarily long time to crunch but that
is because they have enabled lots of debuggin in the coding. Hopefully
they will get the answers to the problems and the times will drop back
into the 4 hour or so range for most people.
