    i guess it could be accurate if it bounced. or if i picked up the meteorite and hit you with it.

    Watch what happens to the gentleman near the window. Probably similar things happened at schools.

    For all you meteor fans out there, the Peekskill event in 1992 was memorable. It smashed the back end of a car that was being used by a young lady. It was actually her dad's car. She told him the car got smashed by a meteor and he didn't think it was true. But it was!

    Meteorite, meteor, who cares. No one is winning an astrophysicist award on this forum.

    these are unrelated objects that came from different directions. neither of which have greatly affected the lives of more then the tiny fraction of humanity who directly witnessed either of them.

    more lives have already been affected by the minute amounts average yearly temperatures have risen as a result of the automobile and the centralized generation of electrical energy by means of combustion.
