Did any Northern Californians see the COMET?/OT

[Guest guest]

I saw something fantastic this morning..

I think it was a comet fragment

It was massive and it did not flame out or disintigrate, very low on

the horizon, dazzling white with a tail.

My heart was racing...Ive never in my life seen anything like it!

I ran into two security guards at my apartment complex who also

witnessed the event...

Just wondering if any other N. Californians were up and saw the comet?

I saw something similar about a week ago. We were in traffic and thought it was

a low flying aircraft, but it was WAY too fast!

I believe it's the Geminid showers

(http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/space/12/12/meteor.shower/).

There is also a tremendous amount of solar activity. For those who live far

enough north (and if the clouds ever go away), the aurora have been fantastic.

Does get your heart racing!
