Your personal background.
Hi there...I'm Bob, and I live in Southeast Michigan. I'm involved in engine testing in the automotive industry.

I keep busy as I'm working on my Masters degree in Computer Science, having previously earned my B.S. a long time ago.

I also like to fish, shoot, and work with horses. I occasionally break out a telescope for some astronomy, but a clear night in this area is pretty rare.
Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I wanted to get involved with some of the home projects, but I really didn't like the direction of some of them. When I read about Einstein, I thought this was the one for me...pure science.

I generally leave the computer runing Einstein when I go to bed. The work doesn't usually finish in one over night, but that's fine.

I guess I like to feel the sense of helping out on something like this.

Cheers...

Bob
