Wow, very cool.
I had the SETI@home screensaver running on my computer for quite a while years ago.
It's probably more excitement over nothing again, I remember how stoked scientists and many people in general (and how freaked out religious fundmentalists, hee hee) were getting over that rock from Mars a few years ago that supposedly had (I think) bacteria fossils in it. Turned out it was so far past inconclusive it wasn't nearly as exciting as they billed it.
Still, gotta keep searching I suppose.
