Good point Steve, LIGO has been an incredibly exceptional achievement, mainly because those grav waves are so absurdly tenuous that it seemed impossible to detect them above the background noise (i.e. all other manners of oscillations, like wind, traffic, microtremors and so on).

Also, LIGO has been another proof of the semi-transcendent mental abilities of Albert Einstein, whose theory foresaw gravitational waves almost 100 year before their actual detection.

I hope god sends another mind like him to work out the energy crisis in the world.
