Hello All,
Here's a link to a pretty good video.
Short, but fairly close up, and the thing doesn't look too unlike a
meteorite...

It does look black in this video. I think it was the light that caused it
to look brownish in some of the photographs...meaning it's probley a
meteorite.

Norm,
I think that if they were to scratch it hard with a nail, it would go in
pretty deep and be very shiny.

Thanks for the better picture Adam. From the random
abrasions and percussion pits, it looks like a
fragment from some heavy equipment part that self
destructed, then got run over
That thing looks to me like many of the chunks of lead that I've dug while
metal detecting, however, I just asked Lt. Robert Brightman, who was the
officer on the scene if it was magnetic. He said that it held a magnet quite
well. If it is lead, then there's something ferrous inside it, too.
I just saw a longish story on the object on a local news story, including a
close-up of the object being rotated. In the short time of that close-up, it
sure looked like regmyglyphs on it to me. I'm trying to search down the video
on the net now.

I got this link to play in Firefox and was able to pause it in the reverse
view. There
are a few features that look like regs. Perhaps the other gouges and such were
created
during its crash thru the building. We'll have to wait and see.

Sure looks like a piece of pyrite. From the video I saw, crystal faces
are visible on one end.
Someone trying to get some publicity and money?
Probably.

Pyrite doesn't hold a magnet.

Actually you are wrong...it is magnetic if you heat it.
Plus pyrrhotite (FeS-as well) is magnetic depending upon the amount of Fe.

Thanks for the better picture Adam. From the random
abrasions and percussion pits, it looks like a
fragment from some heavy equipment part that self
destructed, then got run over for a few months on a
hard surface. How it came to fall out of the sky is a
mystery though. Maybe it got stuck in
or... it could be a spent fuel-rod from a Beamship (UFO). Or a neighbor
flinging garbage from a Trebuchet-catapult.
Just Kidding, who knows why so many strange objects are reported as coming
from the sky?
