LOL! You got me! I know better too! We saw a meteor put on quite a show. It travelled for many seconds horizontally before it disappeared. It stayed bright close to ground so it could have impacted (thus a meteorite) in fields nearby. Was quite a sight.

Just as well since this part of the general public wouldn't want to know! I saw the movie 'Deep Impact'. Although, the scientist in me thinks It would be interesting to become part of the superheated sand that would become rock (like Trinitite after the bomb). Would I even be a fossil or just elements added?

No angry response. I am a highly evolved organism-I use brains and cunning instead of brawn and loud words. I am a female! (Now I am waiting for the angry response!!).
