GEMINID METEOR SHOWER:  Earth is entering a stream of debris from "rock 
comet" 3200 Phaethon, source of the annual Geminid meteor shower.  Last 
night, NASA cameras recorded more than a dozen fireballs over the USA. 
Geminid activity should remain relatively high for the next three or 
four nights, with a peak expected on Dec. 13-14.  Check http://spaceweather.com
