Assume for one second that alien life exists and is broadcasting radio waves in frequencies we're looking for. In all likelihood, those aliens would be FAR more advanced than we are, considering that we've only been capable of sending out radio signals for the last 100 years or so. If the aliens wanted to find us, they would have.

Of course, all that is a HUGE assumption. Your compute cycles would be far better spent on something with actual relevance, like projects that simulate protein folding or docking molecules into protein targets. Looking for aliens that just happen to be at our EXACT level of technology just seems [censored] stupid.
