   Q: Why Are People Running SETI @ Home And Searching For Aliens UFOs   
   Extraterrestrials ? // Part 2.   
      
   A: Here Are Thousands of Answers...   
      
      
   Because I beleive SETI is a worthwhile project.   
      
   Because I beleive in the SETI Program :)   
      
   Because I beleive.   
      
   Because I believe and would like to find proof for myself.   
      
   Because I believe in ET.   
      
   Because I believe in extraterrestrial (but bacterial) life.   
      
   Because I believe in the research.   
      
   Because I believe in this project.   
      
   Because I believe in this research, and it's easy to be of assistance.   
      
   Because I believe it's just a matter of time.   
      
   Because I believe on extraterrestrial life and I think this is the   
   least I can do to help to find it.   
      
   Because I believe something's out there.   
      
   Because I believe there is other life out there, whether it is for the   
   good of humanity or not.   
      
   Because I believe we ARE NOT alone. If we were, it would be such a   
   terrible waste of space!   
      
   Because I believe we are not alone and we should say HI.   
      
   Because I believe!   
      
   Because I can.   
      
   Because I can and I believe SETI to be important.   
      
   Because I can help. I am interested in any scientific endeavour such   
   as SETI@Home.   
      
   Because I can particip a great scientific project!   
      
   Because I can!! Although the signal from ET may not be detected in my   
   lifetime, my kids and grandkids can say "My father" or "My   
   grandfather" was on the SETI team that looked and/or listened for ET   
   for many years.   
      
   Because I can, and why not?   
      
   Because I can.   
      
   Because I don't want to be alone in all this space...   
      
   Because I dont believe that a superior intelligence would use the same   
   level of technology as us, so we are looking for "smoke signals from   
   the space", so my help can end this steril effort quickly.   
      
   Because I find the project interesting.   
      
   Because I firmly believe we are not alone in the universe and you will   
   need all our help to find others. I also think it is a fabulous way to   
   get large computing power.   
      
   Because I have to know.   
      
   Because I know the truth, and now what I want are the answers.   
      
   Because I know we are not alone in the universe...   
      
   Because I know: I WILL FIND THEM !!!   
      
   Because I like my brother, Dan, a lot.   
      
   Because I like the idea of contributing to this search by using my   
   otherwise wasted resources   
      
   Because I must. Because I believe in SETI. Because I hope to be alive   
   when we make First Contact.   
      
   Because I personally would like to know the answer to the question,   
   "is there anything out there?" And I would like to know the out come   
   if the answer is yes.   
      
   Because I think it is a neat thing to do.   
      
   Because I think it is an interseting topic.   
      
   Because I think that human being goes to a major Brain evolution and ,   
   if we contact with them, all of us need to be prepare for the time of   
   that contact. I am a Neurosurgeon and I want to know if they have more   
   advanced knowledge in neuroscience field that they could give to all   
   humanity, through all of us that could understand it better.   
      
   Because I think that we are not alone in the universe.   
      
   Because I think the project is interesting.   
      
   Because I think this idea is totally awesome!   
      
   Because I think we(that I mean habitant on the earth) have to   
   cooperate with this SETI project.   
      
   Because I thought it was a great experiment; to use the wide-flung   
   resources of like-minded people all over the world is brilliant, I   
   wanted to be a part of that!

   Because I want to know if there is a ET.   
      
   Because I want to know if we are really alone in the universe.   
      
   Because I want to know what is out there, the search for the unknown   
   intrigues me.

   beings.   
      
   Because I'm Ken Valyi.   
      
   Because I'm Toasty. And there is life out there. And we need to find   
   it, for the greater good.

   Because THEY told me to!!!!   
      
   Because distributed computing is the beginning of an evolution toward   
   what the internet was meant for   
      
   Because finding ET is cool (for the good of humanity ... nah!)   
      
   Because he is . . . out there.   
      
   Because i Just like it :)   
      
   Because i am a scientist and this is a worthy project. I believe there   
   are many forms of life out there.I have left a couple of questions   
   blank...are "aliens" friendly? well probably and probably not depends   
   on which ones...when will we detect? very good question....that is   
   another reason I am helping. maybe by finding other life we will   
   cherish the life all around us!   
      
   Because i am thy god   
      
   Because i beleive there is life out there, and my computers may as   
   well help look for them when i'm not using them   
      
   Because i believe in it!!   
      
   Because i believe there more than just us.   
      
   Because i'm a science fiction fan, and I believe in alien   
   civilizations.   
      
   Because if you don't look for something you will never find it and the   
   more who look the better your chances.   
      
   Because in high school I was voted most likely to build my own   
   spacecraft and abandon the planet Earth.   
      
   Because interested people, not the government, should be involved in   
   the search.   
      
   Because is funny!!!   
      
   Because it (ETI) is there.   
      
   Because it has to be done   
      
   Because it is FUN!

   Because it is a move away from "Big Science"   
      
   Because it is a neat idea.   
      
   Because it is a project that fascinates me; finding is not so great   
   and seeking   
      
   Because it is an exciting project that I want to be part of   
      
   Because it is an interesting project and want to participate in it.   
      
   Because it is an interesting project worth supporting.   
      
   Because it is freaking cool!   
      
   Because it is interesting and I believe that there are other lifeforms   
   that must have evolved spontaneously
