12. 12 GRB paper... Agree on outline for papers:  cascade GRBs (Ignacio) - combine with Brennan‘s analysis?   -induced GRBs (Kyler, Michael) - incorporate what? - combine how? - 2 separate papers? New ideas (e.g. astro-ph70502521) TeV-neutrinos from mildly relativistic SN-jets? (3-25%) Abundant GRB‘s with photon jet not breaking out of stellar environment?
