To put it bluntly, finding out IF there is intelligent life out there is meaningless. Any reasonable person would have to admit that of course we're not the only ones. But actually being able to learn something should be the real benchmark in spending massive computer power.

LOL at the 'any reasonable person' version of poisoning the well. There really is no basis in saying there are other life forms out there. We have absolutely no concept of the likelihood of the development of life. If its trillions to one, its going to be close.
