With the discovery of low-energy radiation appearing to come from the site of gamma-ray bursts in the hours to weeks after the initial burst of gamma rays, it would appear that astronomers have finally seen a cosmological imprint made by the burster on its surroundings. I discuss in this paper the phenomenon of post-burst emission in BATSE gamma-ray bursts at energies traditionally associated with prompt emission. By summing the background-subtracted signals from hundreds of BATSE bursts, I find that tails out to 2000 seconds after the trigger may be a common feature of Class I events, but not of the shorter Class II bursts. The tail component appears independent of both the duration and brightness of the burst, and may be softer. .
