Roberto and All,

Studies by Sirko Molau has revealed that the Epsilon Geminids may be active 
as early as October 5, so it may be possible that these meteors are indeed 
Epsilon Geminids. One would not expect such a large number of these meteors 
so early in the activity period.

Clear Skies,

Robert Lunsford
