So is a Studebaker.

I never knew meteorites could be that colorful. I usually think of them as greyish objects.

This thread is useless without pictures of the thing.

Welcome to the BAUT Forum.

As I recall, a picture accompanied a news article, maybe the cited one. It wasn't much to look at -- something only a person might find remarkable if an actual meteor crashed into someone's house a few cities away. I looked where I could and didn't see the photo I recall. (Of course, we all know how sneaky false memories can be.)

I don't think it's unusual, for purposes of saving space, for newspapers to archive the text of stories and not save acompanying images. Sometimes you need to see these things when they're fresh, to get the full experience.

But, as the experts have determined that this rock isn't a meteorite, the thread's usefullness has pretty much expired on its own. It had such potential...

Pumice, slag, and a lot of other pitted stones fool people every year.
