What if... SETI@home does manage to find ET. Then historians
will realize that the concept of distributed computing was pioneered
by Primenet and the GIMPS project. The history books will record
George Woltman as one of the pioneers that had an idea that indirectly
led to a discovery far more profound than the next Mersenne prime.
