On Nov 1st a friend in north central Minnesota reported the following to me.  I'm asking her 
for more specific info.  

Anyone else see this?  Sounds to me like there may be pieces on the ground.

Thanx for the info re the colors; interesting!  This one was bright enough that it actually drew 
my attention by being so bright  just at the edge of my vision and lasted long enough that I 
could turn my head, look at it for perhaps 2 seconds or so before it finally seemed to explode.  
It was one piece; a bright blue that edged with neon green the farther it traveled until turning 
nearly entirely green just before it flashed.  The path was from the east to just south of due 
west.  No sound, no radio (I was outside, silly), I couldn't tell if it was above or below the haze 
but it was definately clear.  Oh yeah, it had a rather long tail while I watched it.  One of those 
"wow" things.
