Hello Bruce _

I like the nice friendly -- Einstein@home - community we have --

so I thought a new thread for people just joining the _ Einstein @ home - community

so they could introduce them selves ___ and say hello _ would be nice.

hopefully -- Einstein@home -- could have -- 1 million __ 1,000,000 _ CPU's

_ crunching work units for __ Einstein@home very soon ? :)

Bruce _

I think "we" __ "we" _ meaning __ the Einstein@home crunchers _

and you as a scientist and all the contributing scientists

from all around the world

have a good chance of detecting " _ 'Gravitational waves' _

I am so excited about _ 'Gravitational waves' _

that in May or June i am buying a New Dell Precision 670 work station _ [duel] _ Intel® Xeon™ Processor 3.00GHz, 2MB L2 Cache _ just for _ Einstein @ home

Me too.

LIGO and GEO are just getting ready to start the S4 run later this month, which will be a factor of a few more senstive than an previous runs. We estimate that with this new data we should be able to see perhaps five or six hundred parsecs, which increases the odds that there are at least a few pulsars within our search volume. Now we just have to hope that one of these pulsars is distorted enough and spinning quickly!

[PS: one comment on semantics. 'Gravity waves' is an old term that refers to waves on the surface of the ocean or similar. We are looking for 'Gravitational waves'.]

my favorite Quote is the following __

Carl Sagan's thoughts on science __

''When _johannes Kepler_ found his long-cherished belief did not agree with the most precise observation,

he accepted the uncomfortable fact. He preferred the hard truth to his dearest illusions -- that is the heart of science

Sincere _ and _ Very Best Wishes to all __ and happy crunching to all
