(meteorobs) Large Meteor in South Florida

[Kim Youmans]

Adam,
          I don't think you'll be able to post attachments to this list. 
You could either provide a link to the photo, or you could have those on the 
list who wish to view it PM you for an attached reply.
          I'd like to see it myself!

Kim Y.
