Bill, I admit. At the risk of being wrong, I tend to believe people and take them at their word unless I have reason to believe they are lying. In this case If that did hit his roof then I think it might be a meteorite. Cat Mountain meteorite also looked like a piece of coal. And everybody and their brother told the finder that. But it was tested ( x rayed ) and found to be almost pure forsterite. If not for that knowledge it would have never been verified as a true rare meteorite. It too looked as black on the inside as the fusion crust. -- Carl or Debbie Esparza Meteoritemax
