Re: LIGO Progress

["Mike"]

For what's its worth I still believe if the LIGO detectors were moving at
least few miles per second in free space the detection of these elusive
waves would be more forth coming.

While it was pointed out earlier that in a relative sense the LIGO detectors
were in fact moving. To me that statement gives the impression the apparatus
is being fed a diet of stale bread and crackers when it should be afforded
the red carpet treatment.

Thanks, your responses are most informative.
