My spare CPU cycles are currently devoted to

http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu

But I'll think about switching (or I could run them both at the same
time...).

I think it's absolutely incredibly likely that intelligent life exists
outside of the Sol system. But I have a superficially educated suspicion
that intelligent life zips past our current radio transmission phase rather
quickly. In that case, any search for radio waves may be in vain.

Just thought I would mention this since I know there are quite a few new
people on the list since I mentioned it back in November:

KCLUG has a distributed.net team chunking out RC5-64 keys at an average
rate of 2.4 million keys/sec. We are ranked 4827. However, there are only
two of us on the team, so I think we are doing pretty darn good! 

So, if you would like to donate your spare CPU cycles to this effort, grab
the dnet client and join Mac Wisler and I! 

To get the dnet client, go here:

To join the team (or see our stats) go here:
http://stats.distributed.net/rc5-64/tmsummary.php3?team=17572

Yeah, it ain't as sexy as seti@home, but we have a better chance of finding
the key than of finding life in the universe.
