Replacement for F@H

Big B · 05-03-2005, 03:36 AM

Okay, since there's been some revolting info come up about F@H's work, let's hear some alternatives that you'd be interested in. We'll still leave the F@H team going for the time being. After we select something else, we'll go from there.

Einstein@home is a program that uses your computer's idle time to search for spinning neutron stars (also called pulsars) using data from the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors. Einstein@home is a World Year of Physics 2005 project supported by the American Physical Society (APS) and by a number of international organizations.

Well, it came to light about what F@H was for. If you're against gene manipulation and/or cloning, you're probably not going care for F@H.

For GOD SAKE, F@H's objective of research into the Folding of Proteins is NOT going to cause Cloning, If anyone is stopping atleast read as much as you can on the subject.

The rules surrounding cloning and gene manipulation are INCREDIBLY strict, and F@H really is NOT a bad Project, we should all carry on with it.

I know, but some people are against even researching. Personally, I haven't thought it over enough to really have an opinion on it. There are people that feel it's wrong, and they have the right to do so and act on it, so long as the actions don't break the law.
