Does this message imply that gravitational waves already
have been detected???
If so I have missed a few newsitems.
If not, on what is this message based?
Until you have detected some events, the absence
of a GR wave should not prove anything.
Or is this only based on the theoretical model,
that we should have been able to detect this one??
