Bob,  What do you need for a scream?  
Please list your scream requirements.

The event was seen in an area approximately 880 miles X 800 miles X 800 miles; the size of the event is noteable.  The Lincoln Nebraska Airport video shows fragmentation.  Several witnesses report fragmentation.  There is a good chance that the KC Airport Downtown has a video as well. Manitoba Allsky maybe caught it?   I haven`t checked with Chris Peterson but there is a chance he captured it as well?

Space trash unlikely from what I see in the video and from witness reports... wrong speed and character.

  I say get busy, do your homework and make some calls.  More reports will filter out later today when I have time to post them.  
Best Regards, Dirk Ross...Tokyo

Ft. Collins dude hasn`t replied to my clarification questions.
