And you people *adopted* that disguised F-word as an acronym?
Truly, the Evil One has taken full hold on SETI. It is now named
BOINC as a sign of its status as a satanic activity. You are all
participating in evil - no doubt about it any more - and you have all
been duped into using the F-word to describe it.
No the work they used was BONK!
Hmm...
First, you originated a post titled "Big Bang".
Now you originated a post using "Bonking", as the subj matter.
It seems your posting has taken on some Freudian overtones.
If this was not done consciously, you may have some unresolved issues
you haven't addressed.
Good Luck,
