I installed the program a while ago, but failed to mention it here. It seems a worth-while cause.

It automatically runs with a low priority, so that it doesn't interfere with normal work. If you leave the computer for a while, a screensaver becomes active, showing the current status.

All of us together can produce the most comprehensive and accurate future climate model, better than any of the few super-computers working on it.
