kudos:1 | Worthwhile efforts Of all the things BBR has done, with the forums & interesting subjects and discussions offered, IMHO, the DCC projects are THE most valuable..
They offer folks the opportunity to actually do something, and "be a part" of something that can reward humanity with tangible results!! Hopefully, in the near future..
A BIG "thumbs up" to BBR, and the DCC projects and participants who un-selfishly contribute to them!!
A shameless "plug" for TEAM HELIX now. 
Drop by the forum, and look 'round. This place is "the best kept secret" in BBR!! You will find some of the most friendly, and helpful folks in BBR here,(not to mention, we have LOTS of fun!!)

| A hearty second for what rusdi said and a big thanks to the Cap'n for the well written article. 
If your computer is connected to the internet anyway, why not let it do good for generations to come? I have two Folding@Home clients running on each of nine computers now. A client just runs in the background politely using only spare cycles.
There is nothing I can do now to save my mother who lost her battle with ovarian cancer in 1992, two dear friends whose lives ended quite young because of that dreadful disease, or an uncle lost to Alzheimer's. I crunch in the hope answers will be found in time for my beloved sister-in-law just diagnosed with Leukemia and my diabetic daughter, for so many suffering now, for the generations to come. I can't imagine wasting those CPU cycles when they have the potential to do so much good.
I hope everyone reading this will take the time to browse the DC forums here and consider joining our efforts.
