CC me if you would on that, folks! TWO separate local TV weathermen
incorrectly reported this object as "probably from the Leonids". One was
also careful to make clear it was "just space debris, burning up in our
atmosphere". Guess even those skeptical New England Yankees are prone to
UFO scares... :)

I'm querying one local weatherman today as to what reports have been
received. More later on the list.
