I mean....really? What's the point of having an open discussion forum then if people are going to tell you to "keep it to yourself"? Perhaps I am cynical, but like I said - I'm not telling anyone what to do with their computing power. Just saying that using the @Home network for minecraft rubs me the wrong way, perhaps the same way using the LHC for developing makeup would. That doesn't mean that I'm right or even correct - but I do enjoy a good discussion, and indeed, my comment has spawned several good points that have made me reconsider my position. Had I just "kept it to myself" I would have never been exposed to those and still held the same view.
