(meteorobs) Huge fireball observed over France on January 252008

[stange34 at sbcglobal.net]

Hello Dave.

Were you searching on a (path line) Easterly of  Albuquerque, and Westerly 
of Thomas's location?

Reason I ask is "at that time" not everyone understood that the Sandia1 
station uses a mirror system which correctly places East & West as normal, 
whereas All-Sky lens systems have East & West reversed in their images.
