Nice webpage, Mr Hankey. Great story and photos.
I was wondering about one thing you said -- Personally I think I’m going to sit
the rest of this one out. I can only handle one fireball at a time.
Why would you leave an area where a meteorite was found to go back to Penn. to
work on a fireball where nothing has been found all these long months? I would
think you would want to work where there is a bigger chance of success.
Good job on keeping us all informed.
