Pretty much every family member I've ever lost, I lost to cancer, so I'm getting kind of pissed off at it. Unfourtuantely, Grid.org shut down out of nowhere. That's where I've been donating my computing time to cancer research. Looking around, there's not really any other distributed computing sites doing cancer research right now, which is to bad. Apparently seaching for aliens and chess strategies is more important than helping people survive one of the nastiest things going. Anyways, As it stands, I'm donating time to the protein folding and genome mapping projects over at http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/. Supposedly, they will be starting a phase II cancer research project here in a few months. I'll play with protein until then I suppose!
