If you really are drunk, which you aren't, go do something constructive like driving a car, or operating heavy machinery.

Oh yeah. I guess I read that wrong. The bursts last 10 minutes and come in 77 minute intervals. But they said this only happened for 5 bursts. I don't think it really says whether the bursts are still going on, or if the times have changed or anything. I would be interested to know.

To me with the info I have it would seem that I have to agree with the article in saying this would be a natural phenomena, not extraterresterial life. If a civilization has the intelligence to put a signal out, would you not think that they would make the bursts exactly 10 minutes, and at exactly the same frequency and at exactly the same interval, not just "around the same."

Heres stuff on what pulsars are if anyones interested:
