How much global warming can we expect from this extraterrestrial event?

Maybe I should put in for a grant to study this now...

Think of the benefit to the world if it had exploded above Mecca. Ironic fate for a bunch of meteorite worshippers. What a waste of space debris.

Guess the California Metorite was after the Russian Fireball.

Anyone see it?

A Russian policeman works near an ice hole,

I feel his pain. I work with a few ice holes myself.

Wow. I’ve seen those before. I saw one in Texas about ‘70, looking out over the Gulf of Mexico at night. It disappeared over the horizon, still a fireball - actually there were 3 - 1 large, two small - pretty close together. They really do light things up.

yup... that's the traffic-cam video the pic's came from all right

because of fraud i think ALL cars in Russia are required to have video cams in them now and they get all kinds of stuff caught on video
