  In a simple reanalysis of the KKLMMT scenario, we argue that the slow roll
condition in the D3-anti-D3-brane inflationary scenario in superstring theory
requires no more than a moderate tuning. The cosmic string tension is very
sensitive to the conformal coupling: with less fine-tuning, the cosmic string
tension (as well as the ratio of tensor to scalar perturbation mode) increases
rapidly and can easily saturate the present observational bound. In a
multi-throat brane inflationary scenario, this feature substantially improves
the chance of detecting and measuring the properties of the cosmic strings as a
window to the superstring theory and our pre-inflationary universe.
