            "In all projects except those of the SETI Institute, funding hurdles have
    kept the searches from being extremely powerful. We know from everybody's
    experience that a really powerful SETI search requires real-time attention
    from an observer who can react to many candidate signals. Nobody except
    the SETI Institute has been able to afford this. Most searches, then, have
    a serious flaw in that they aren't able to immediately identify any
    candidate signals detected."
            Frank Drake, in SETI Institute News, volume 12 number 1, First Quarter
    2003, p. 5
