Thank you Joe for the links. As a university teacher of physics (including
relativity theory) for many decades I too was excited by this discovery.
You must be particularly thrilled in view of your own contributions to the
area.
And to satisfy the list's topic-policeman perhaps your new JTgrav mod
My bad. My last post was not intended for the list. Apologies.

Hi Joe,
Thanks Joe for taking the time to do such a thorough editing job on Kai’s first
pass!
I hope that the algorithms look better in the final product than they do in the
pdf. My aesthetic sense is calibrated for the LyXLaTeX look - these Microsoft
Word/MathType manuscripts hurt my eyes…
Hi Bill, Michael, and all,

The design sensitivity of Advanced LIGO is 10 times better than the
previous detector, and the low-frequency end has be

This reminds me of something :) I had the privilege of meeting J
Is it "luck" or misinterpretation of what they are actually seeing?
There's an implied assumption in the paper that they are seeing gravity
waves as though there is no possible other explanation.
I'm reminded of what happened in the 80's when universities were claiming
galactic gamma sources but it

Hi all,
Glad you enjoyed the LIGO links, etc.

Chase,
Please take your negative attitude somewhere else. It is not appreciated

I'm in total agreement too. It is a totally outrageous comment. It is just
plain rudeness and bad manners. The poster should grind his axe [and

Hey, this guy is funny.
Do you have a lot like him on the list?
Putting them on a scene could make a good show...
By the way,
Thanks for the links Joe. I think many of the list subscribers will find them
interesting.

Thank you very much. Is there a tentative release date for JTgrav? ;)
