Your personal background.
Hello everyone. I am a 30 year old electrician working at Mount Isa Mines, in Mount Isa, Queensland, Australia. I am married, and have one daughter. I am interested in a number of things (too many to list here) but here are a few:

Astronomy, Quantum Physics, Electricity, The Universe, Extraterrestrial Research, Fishing, Aussie Rules Football (the real game), ad basically anything to do with old cars.

Mount Isa is a small mining town with one of the top 10 biggest copper producing mines in the world. A lovely place for a holiday. If any place in Australia could epitomize the Australian Outback, then this is it.
Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I joined this project, just like I joined SETI@home, in order to help out and lend my computer to a greater cause. I always have said, what use is a computer just sitting around the house, being used for perhaps an hour a day, when I can put it to work 24 hours a day?

Hope we get some good results.
