Folks,

I can understand that current interest focusses on recovering stones: but
please, there also was a fireball seen. I hope someone sets out gathering
data on this fireball as well. Rumour has it that the Chicago meteorite
looks like an LL6, and therefore I am VERY curious whether the radiant and
approximate orbit for this new fall might be similar to those for the
Glanerbrug LL5 fall from April 7, 1990.
