I agree with Rob, I immediately thought that someone probably emptied a barbeque grill and those are lava rocks. A relative of mine witnessed an extremely bright fall last year and she swore that she saw it fall beside the road in a field. After getting the news reports, it turned out that it fell several hundred miles away. The impact is always further away than the witness thinks. So, it would be extremely unlikely if he had actually found it where he thought it fell.

I suspect they aren't meteorites at all. --Rob -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Thomas Randall Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2012 12:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [meteorite-list] Man claims to find meteor CNN http://bit.ly/zs05kg ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
