2) Message boards : Cafe Rosetta : Request from a journalist (Message 15585) Posted 5 May 2006 by lunarcom Post: Why did you get involved? Was a big Seti Classic cruncher and then when I heard about the BOINC project switched over to it and then targeted my resources to more useful projects. Did you buy any new equipment to get into the project or did you just use existing computer hardware? Just what I have, but then again I have over 400 computers at my disposal What have you learned about biomedical research? I work for a University so any questions I have had I take to a medical researcher on staff and have learned many things. What have you learned about computers? Sorry been using them for 25 years now and still have not learned it all. So everyday there is something new. What have you gained from your participation in the project? A sense of competition, fellowship and in general doing something good for my fellow man. Where do you live? Prince George, BC, Canada What do you do for a living? Technical Support Specialist How old are you? 43 My preference is to speak with you on the telephone (if you live in the U.S.). E-mail me if you want to set up a time to talk. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Donna Blankinship dblankinship@ap.org P.S. In case you were wondering, I work out of the AP's Seattle office. I write about science and education. This story is slated to be a national tech story, but probably will also run in science and health news.[/quote]
