Is someone good at maths? I was just wondering if it's possible to work out how energy consumption has been 'wasted' on the Seti@Home project? There's a lot of computers out there that never idle, continually sucking up electricity and leading to depletion of various fuel resources. In fact it'd be interesting to put it into units that can scare people properly like, how many nuclear power stations does it take to run, or how many life support machines could be run on the same power... Should projects like Seti@Home or The Grid be accountable for the resources that are consumed for their projects? -- Dave Turner http://figroll.com/
