I think it's amusing that Connecticut-bound space rocks apparently
have a preference for towns beginning with the letter W.  ;-)  --Rob

That makes 5 witnessed falls for the small state of Connecticut;  America's first documented fall, an H4 at Weston in 1807, the two Wethersfield L6 stones that hit houses in 1971 and again in 1982, a single L6 stone that landed in a street in Stratford in 1974, and now the house hitter at Wolcott.  Wonder what the state rock should be?

Cheers,

Frank
