Hi all,

Glad you enjoyed the LIGO links, etc.

Perhaps they had a bit of luck to find a strong signal in the 16 days of 
fully analyzed data (taken between September 12 and October 20, 2015). 
But already in the discovery paper they show evidence of a second event, 
with about 1/3 the strength.  I think it likely that many more such 
events will be found in coming months.  We will soon know.
