Perhaps Chris or someone can confirm that common meteors and uncommon 
Bolides have  very similar composite light flaring (SHAPE). Where the 
primary difference is mainly just in light amplitude.

This surprised me when I looked at a limovie graph of a weak meteor from 
last night.

I expected meteor streaks to be completely different with little or no 
flaring variance in the composite shape.
