That was a blip in a detector that was never repeated or reproduced.  We 
have no idea if it indicated a true magnetic monopole or not.  Some 
grand-unified theories predict magnetic monopoles, though they'd have to 
be very, very massive particles.

You'll have to first explain what you even mean by those terms.
