    Hi All,
    
    I agree with Tony.  The pair of sightings from France was almost
    certainly a bright meteor.  The blue-green color rules out an
    Iridium flare, and the short duration rules out a satellite
    reentry.  Somehow, we're failing to get the message out to people
    that they are HUNDREDS of times more likely to see a bright
    meteor than a satellite reentry.
    
    Cheers,
    Rob
