Greetings Meteor Enthusiasts!

Again, if all works out accordingly, I may be out 
this year in pursuit of the June Bootids.  "Unstable"
meteor streams make so much fun to watch!  

If the paper that Roberto Gorelli kindly brought to
our attention was published in 1996, it seems to me
that from Roberto's message, the paper did not list 
a favorable chance of activity for June 1998!  Thus,
although I do not have the paper in my possession, I
think it can be safe to say that there may be some
surprises in store, not just for the June Bootids,
but for others as well!   

Long, bright, bursting Lyrids!
