Sid,
I agree that witnessing fireballs can be awe inspiring! I'm glad to hear
that you are more interested than ever in learning and observing. Be
sure to visit the web pages of the AMS, NAMN, and the IMO for lots of
good information. The addresses are:

http://www.imodot net
As for the fireball correction, velocity is not the most important
component and the speed can be fairly well determined from other factors
and the fact that is was an Orionid. If you are still compelled to
correct the first report simply fill out another stating that this is an
amendment to an earlier report.
Clear Skies!
