I was starting a post-run on run 10825 to see what was happening with
the two strange sets of bursts Kate saw, when I found an interesting burst
of my own. I have 46 hits above 6 MeV in a 16 second window. The hits
come from all over, and the average number of background hits in 16 seconds
is 21. A burst this size should occur once per 210 days. Only three of
the hits are energetic, 43 MeV, 12.6 MeV and 12.0 MeV. If someone spots a
bright spot in the LMC, you saw it here first. :)
