    Hi

    Very good work by all as is running that project yet.

    There is over 100 members participating but only 19 (if am right?) as run it every day. Some others run it from time to time or 3-4 day per week. If 50 ran every day it should be a large boost.
    But there is the same which project we run. I think LLR have all members crunching 100 %.

    Please realize that some of us aren't intending to put our resources out there just because a project exists. I want my crunching to to be for a purpose that benefits mankind. Projects like BURP, keyloggers, mouse loggers, finding whatever prime number have little to do with what I consider to be solving the important issues of mankind's existance.

    If you want to support these non-vital efforts that is your choice, but when it comes down to the potential for saving people's lives I know where I want to focus my efforts. Being first, or placing well in a non-vital effort is something I for one have little interest in. Now, placing well in a potentially life saving project, that I can get into.

    Steve Lux I feel the same way, My compliments to your thinking and mine are in parallel. Too solve the worlds problems means that we must start at the root of self preservation, hence a longer life to find the problems of life extention. Disease and Cancer are rooted in Protein substructure. BY doing SIMAP and Predictor we are assisting the clinical labs in reducing the time for drugs and research to reach the Drugstores and Pharmacies authorized by the FDA.
    Thank You Steve, Thank You very Much for following along on my same path.

    Steve & Nflight,

    Very good points raised, I'm in total agreement so I've just dedicated a couple of cores now to Predictor due to you two!

    While I follow ideas set down by Steve and Nflight, I differ slightly.

    Yep, I see the benefits of Predictor and the like and happily run them. But I think CPDN deserves attention.
    What use is drugs if we cant live on the planet? :? :shock:

    and when I ran the prime numbers, do not all PC's make use of maths? Perhaps for running the very projects you run (not to qualified to knwo what happens with the research but...I think it uses maths!) It's possible prime numbers are used...now while not amazingly great, those prime's may be helpful to various things... ;)

    but yes I agree...
    SIMAP, Predictor and CPDN are my main projects :D

    3 of the most amazing numbers used in every branch of research is ......

    π (pi)

    i (√-1)

    and ∞

    There would be no research without them :!:



    Sorry, I'm off topic.

    Oh, I'm into Climate Prediction also. The Earthly climate and our efforts to understand it are obviously areas of human stuardship that effect modern humanity and our human legacies.

    I don't recall the name of the project at this time, but I understand there is one on the way that tracks near earth bodies in space. I intend to support that with some capacity when I can run it.

    I suppose that if I had capacity to "spare" I could expend some on less vital projects, but there are people dying today and people who will die in some tomorrow (possibly our own decendants?) who may not have if we do what we can today.
