ADDITION TO REPORT

"Addition to PINELLAS COUNTY report of same date" I just wanted to respond to the recent report of a green meteor-like display over the water in our area. No sir, you are not nuts, and I guess I'm not either, should this be the only consideration. Aproximately 9 years ago, my wife and I were driving on Coquina Key late at night when I saw, seemingly just beyond the skyway bridge, to the SW, a very bright green "meteor" head apparently into the gulf. I remember thinking it might be a flare, due to the odd colour and the startling brightness,... but I considered the speed, (meteoric), the size, even if it was nearer than I suspected which is unlikely, and concluded that it was indeed some extraordinary low atmosphere event. It happened so quickly that my wife missed it, much to my consternation.
