[meteorite-list] Big Well Damage

[MARK BOSTICK]

I can confirm great damage to the big well location.  The shed above the 
well is half missing, the building itself looks like it is missing it's 
roof.  This was/is the location of the 1000 lb. Brenham.  Due to the weight 
of the specimen I image it is still there, hopefullly still in one piece.


The tornado stayed on the ground until it entered Pratt county...where one 
person has been comfirmed dead.  That's an eight mile strip.


Technology and our understanding of weather saved 100's of people.  Along 
with much of the state last night I watched it form, start to spin, and 
listened while they declared Greensburg a target of a tornado about 20 
minutes before it hit.


Anyway, I apologize for the many e-mails on this.  Greensburg is has a 
unique meteorite history; past, present and I believe future.  I hope I have 
not strayed too far into OT.


Mark

Dear Mark:

These news reports are not OT at all.

A lot of us have a great deal of affection for Greensburg and it *is* a 
unique meteorite town, so please keep us posted. Appreciate you being 
our man on the spot in Kansas.



Best wishes,
