A comparison is made of the two extremely intense events on August 27, 1998 and March 5, 1979. The striking similarity between the outbursts strongly implies a common nature. The observation of two giant outbursts within 20 years from different sources suggests that such events occur in an SGR once every 50-100 years.13 pages + 12 figures, submitted to The Astronomy LettersAstrophysicsActivity of the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1900+14 in 1998 from Konus-Wind Observations: 2.
