[dba-Tech] Can you spell superluminal? and define it?

Arthur,
Ever since the first report of apparent FTL motion, I've been waiting to 
hear or see confirmation.  Then, the second report came.  Now, I'm 
excited that we are about to really learn something new about our 
physical universe.  Isn't this great?
