Saw a fireball go across the sky once. Another time, though I didn't see it, the meteor was so bright it lit up everything just like it was noon but it lasted for just an instant.

All kinds of stuff up there if you can hang away from the city lights.

RaiderPride.....what's the cow bell for? I know, I know, to let the bears know you are there and they should get away. Unfortunately, tests done by the Jonkel Bros. here in Montana have shown that noise like that only perks up their curiosity and when they investigate and find it's some dummy with a cowbell around his neck....boy are they pissed. You're gonna be toast.

Better to hike along singing a Wayne Newton or Barry Manilow song and then you will definitely be safe. Probably every creature in the forest will go into hiding, never to be seen again.And the fishing will most like be lousy also.

Sitting next to high rise window one night-morning, after late shift.
Sky is clear black. Looking back and forth between pc monitor and TV screen, alternately staring out over skyline and local river, this streak of green comes down. And I sht you not, fcking *green*. Long trail of flames behind this thing, green fire -
and I was was like - FCK!!! PLANE'S GOING DOWN!!!
Nothing but vapor left right before it reached terra, 200 yards above ground tops. Smoke in the air, all that was left.
Had an IM program open, "HOLY SHT, YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW!!!"
Checked papers in morning for "spectacular green meteor above town early morning" headline. Not so much as a mention. Apparently no one else saw it.
