It was certainly interesting but much of it was dedicated to SETI. I have been asked to write an article on BOINC for an Italian professional computer science organization magazine, and the first draft was refused because I wrote about SETI, Carl Sagan and his "Contact" book. So I had to rewrite it avoiding any reference to "little green men" and it was accepted.

This was not deliberate. However, once David had bought Eric into the intereview, he had so much good information to tell that it would have been churlish to have stopped him. Perhaps we will be able to rectify this in some forthcoming other mp3`s we have lined up with other projects.

We are glad you had your article accepted.
