Resolution of the Fermi Paradox?
I used to be near the top of SETI@home contributors, but dropped out, partly because of my very early advocacy of the BOINC approach, but also because I concluded the Fermi Paradox has a bad resolution. The key question is the transition from naturally evolved Turing machines to artificially designed Turing machines. I've concluded we humans don't have much of a future, Iain M Banks not withstanding, and the best possible scenario is a Gamesters of Triskelion thing, where radio silence is enforced as part of the game.
