Good example for countenance and politeness, Doug. Once an old Icelander,
while fighting in a battle, was penetrated by an enemy's lance. The man fell
down to the ground, dying, and wondering: "this type of broad lances really
seems to become into fashion today." Could easily be transformed in a
meteorite-related story :-)
Wish all of you a nice Sunday,
Matthias

Thanks Anne, hopefully the witness erred by being a day to early, how
fitting that would be! BTW, on today's date in Paris in 1793, Marie
Antoinette told the executioner moments before giving her the French
Penalty, "Pardon me, mon sieur, I did not mean to step on your foot."
Kindest wishes
Doug

Yes, Doug,
Alain Carion did hear from one eye-witness who is absolutely positive that
it fell on Wednesday July 13, between 11 and noon.
However the sky was very dark, overcast and stormy looking, so it was
probably mistaken for thunder and lightning.
Nothing more at this time.

and if it came down during the day, any reports from Paris-ORLY
Airport? Maybe som of the problem is Draveil is 2 km (1.5 miles) from
the airport and folks don't notice loud booms. But the control tower
must have had an excellent view

To all the collectors out there who are dying to add a piece of that
meteorite to your collection:
Patience, please Patience. It will happen.
The team from the Museum of Paris just found a 2 kilo mass, and Alain
Carion got a phone call from a guy who found a 5.3 kilos mass, he does
not have
it yet but he is negotiating and here is a picture:

And this certainly indicates that there are more pieces out there,
eventually they will be found.
So, patience everybody!
