Cheers TMT, baked and earthtone!!


It *is* quite a BIG index!!
That's because we are very productive!!


I started yesterday around 1300 and finished around 2030 (with breaks, of course). I *hope* it helps people see *where* they might find answers to questions, for example those "Is *this* a strange/ significant signal.." etc, by putting all the screenshots in one "place".

Anyway, it's "version 1", so time will tell if it needs modifying at all but, hopefully updates should be "relatively" easier to do!!


Thanx again folks for your support!! Let's go team!!

well done Genya , give yourself a big pat on the back

very informative and should make things clearer for all of the new editions to the team.

Hi pantha!!

Thanx for the "thanx", as it were!! As for giving myself a pat on the back - that becomes increasingly difficult at my age!!


Well, hopefully, it *will* help in some way. It would be nice (IMHO) to have a "one-stop-shop" for ATS SETI@home queries, and TMT's FAQ's are ceratinly an extremely good resource: the "Index" *might* help with some of those associated questions we get. The *difficulty*, I suspect, is to get people to read them first?? (Not a criticism, merely an observation).

Perhaps a mod could comment on this please??
