Title: Helping the Planet
Post by: robbie on March 14, 2006, 21:07:08

Just caught the back end of a climate programme on the BBC and it ended in a link with a request to asisst in a rather large experiment....

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/hottopics/climatechange/

it is something like the SETI project to look for outerspace stuff, only this one is for running something to check what our climate may be in years to come.

Dont know the full details but check it out and do what you can :)

My mum is running it on the home PC, its been going for weeks and has advanced 3 years, it runs soooooooooooooooooooooo slowly and uses up some of the CPU.  I can't be bothered myself.
