[meteorite-list] Video selection criteria

Hi E.P., Bob, and List,

My criteria are very arbitrary and were not based on any kind of
scientific value.  Above all, I wanted clear videos of higher quality.
 Many videos are low-resolution and pixelated.  Some are out of focus
and jumpy.  And a few had very loud and awful music blaring the entire
time.  A large portion of the videos showed the same thing - the trail
in the sky and the damage afterwards.  A relatively-small number are
clear, well-shot, and contain intelligible audio as well - those are
the ones I was looking for.   And some personal bias slipped in - the
video with the dog, the woman screaming in surprise, etc.  Those kinds
of videos just struck me in some way.

I finished up looking through several dozen more last night and today,
and I didn't find any more worth sharing - just more of the same.

I keep hoping to run across another video like #7 (which turned out to
be fake) - something that clearly shows the leading edge of the bolide
while the trail is being formed.  I have yet to find a genuine video
of that.

Best regards,

MikeG
