Ulysses, Mars Odyssey-GRS, HETE-FREGATE, INTEGRAL (SPI-ACS), and
Konus-Wind observed this GRB at 27277 seconds.  As observed by Ulysses,
it had a duration of approximately  15 seconds, a 25-100 keV fluence of
approximately  2.3E-06 erg/cm2, and a peak flux of approximately
4.7E-07 erg/cm2 s over 0.25 seconds.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose
approximate area is 314. sq. arcmin. and whose coordinates are:

    RA(2000)                              DEC(2000)
 ERROR BOX CENTER:  13 h 14 m 25.29 s     62 o 20 '  54.62 " 
 ERROR BOX CORNER 1: 13 h 14 m 31.12 s     62 o 29 '   6.96 " 
 ERROR BOX CORNER 2: 13 h 16 m 13.52 s     61 o 35 '   6.14 " 
 ERROR BOX CORNER 3: 13 h 12 m 28.04 s     63 o  5 '   1.83 " 
 ERROR BOX CORNER 4: 13 h 14 m 19.38 s     62 o 12 '  40.70 " 

This error box may be improved.
