Your personal background.
57 years old
Not married but in a commited relationship
I live on Planet Earth, retired, I try to divide my time as equally as possible between my lady, the Cobra, and my Harley, actually most of the time spent with the Cobra and the Harley also involve my Lady...

I am an Ex-Marine, a Vietnam veteran, two tours in country. The 2003 Cobra is my pride and joy. I found it at a local Ford dealer while helping my Girlfriend choose a new Mustang. The Cobra, also known as the "Terminator" during the 03, 04 model years, has a hand built 4.6 liter, 4 valve per cylinder, supercharged @ 10 pounds of boost engine producing 510 horse power at the flywheel and 430 to the ground, with a 6 speed trans and independent rear suspension. It has only 20,000 miles and will remain in storage most of the time coming out for a sunny day or a MCOA or local Mustang Club car show. It is perfect and will most certainly win many trophys during the remainder of it's life. My Girlfriend eventually purchased a black 2007 V-6 Mustang with leather interior and Pony appearance and performance packages. It is a very nice car and gets a lot of attention

Your opinions about Einstein@Home
I basically run Einstien for the same reason I run SETI. I am fascinated with anything to do with the Solar System, Our Galaxy, and the Universe. I never miss programming on The Science Channel, Discovery, or National Geographic Channel pertaining to the Stars, Space travel, UFO's or anything else about anything beyond our atmosphere. If I can help find life outside our planet or discover information that will be useful to our oen space explorers or even be a part of a team that makes a significant discovery will give me a great deal of satisfaction. I feel that the more information available to our astronauts the safer and more successfull their endeavors in the future will be.
When I can find nothing of interest on T.V. I turn to the NASA Channel, put on some tunes and read. I have several telescopes and often take one or two to the coast with my girlfriend and set up where there is no artificial light for miles.
