Hi Lars and all,

Ron Baalke had posted in a message one time some research that showed 
that the sun striking asteroid and meteoroids caused some out gassing 
and might be a potential source, dynamic of perpetration to cause them 
to fall into the kirkwood gaps and later become Earth crossing objects.

So I would say that there is a change in temperature (however small) 
from sunlight. Perhaps the list archives has those messages.
