Peter,
I'm going to go with the theory she was mistaken. I'm sure the crash
kind of messed her mind up a tad at the time of impact.
Regards!

Hi Tom,
Yes, I think so. There are too many reports of meteorites being hot to the
touch. Those reports are almost always about meteorites that have punched
through something (building, vehicle or ground). I trust this mass of
anecdotal evidence. But we won't know for sure until some starts shooting
rocks through buildings for their doctoral thesis.
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Peter!
I get the friction part but THAT much friction?

Hi Tom,
I believe that part i.e. "I picked up the largest chunk and let go
quickly as it was very hot,". Have you ever held a nail that you just
pulled out of a board? The nail is very warm. The friction of punching
a hole through a home, car or the ground can heat up a meteorite. Now
if they start talking about the fires it started I am with you.
Thanks,
Peter
