While obviously being a comedy show. I think that to a certain extent it truly exemplifies the general perception of meteorites by the population as a whole. Majority of them don't really understand the concept of a asteroid being found on the surface of the earth. And while the youth seem genuinely interested and amazed by meteorites I have found that only adults ( some of them ) due to their ignorance criticize and find humor in meteorites. But these are the people who probably collect Beanie Babies and beer cans anyways.

Did anybody else catch last night's Colbert Report?  He did a segment
on meteorites.  If you can get the rebroadcast tonight, it's worth a look.
