it looks good as the prelude for a grant proposal to get the money to build a kicka$$ space probe to detect them. Sorry to say it like that, but with science not taking a front-seat in this country, you need to find money any where you can...

If someone's after funding for a probe, they've missed the boat !
The NASA lead Swift mission is detecting GRB's as I type. I was going to poach some of it's "coded mask" technology for my "Super Suture Searcher" but I had to pull the plug due to a lack of investors & aptitude !
