[meteorite-list] Hurricanes and rockets

[Jodie Reynolds]

Here are the first 25 shuttle missions, and their nearest tropical
storms, depressions, and hurricanes.  Only 8% of the first 25 coincided to
two weeks.  Maybe every single flight afterwards resulted in a "Yes",
but that's not work I'm interested in doing given the initial
results.  How about you create a spreadsheet like this showing that
the next 110 flights resulted in a majority and then we'll do the
work to confirm it instead?
