Hi,
I wonder who of you is also participating in zooniverse.
(For the ones who haven't heard about it: it is a citizen science project, a bit like BOINC but different in so far that it's not the CPU (or GPU) doing science, but the user.The projects are mostly centred around tasks CPUs can't solve, but only humans can, like handwriting recognition, finding animals in the savanna, etc. Most projects are astronomical, like SETI or Planet finding, some about biology.

Oh, btw. I have the same username there.
