Hi all,
I can relate to the way the mind could confuse hot and cold. When I was very
young my older brother convinced me that I had to undergo an initiation in

Find a stooge. Light a cigarette. Tell stooge he/she is perfectly

Interesting, but I certainly do not believe that a
meteorite can start a fire, unless it ruptures a gas
tank or something like that.

I am sure that those perceptions play a large role in

Hi Alex, Elton, Sterling and all,
Nininger did a number of investigations where people picked up
meteorites soon after the fall. His conclusions were they were cold to
the touch (a number of them frosted over) after falling. Seems however
