 I have a possible GIA. The meteor was 12 degree long and appeared
 between Lacerta and Andromeda. The alignment comes very close to 
 the GIA radiant. My only problem is with the velocity. It was
 medium speed. But considering that it was about 60 degrees from 
 the radiant, is it possible to have a med speed GIA? 
 The mag. was +2, yellow.

I'd say it was acceptable....but I'm inclined to think it probably wasn't a
GIA. It's a judgement call but no damage done if you do and it's not. It's
expected that you are gonna be right for most and wrong for a few.
