Cool! I just saw a report on the Cloudy Nights forum that probably 
corresponds to the TX/LA event below.
I sent him your link, Dirk.
Watch for Falling Rocks!

I am posting this from the driveway on the ipad. At 20:24 local time I saw 
an ULTRA BRIGHT object re enter the atmosphere and break up. It came in from 
due east at 45 degree altitude and sank to 20 degrees altitude over the 
southwest. This object was brighter than the harvest moon a few days ago. It 
was so bright that i could see shadows being cast! It was a blue/greenish 
color and it moved as fast as a meteorite. It lasted maybe for a total of a 
second.

I have seen plenty of meteorites but NONE that were brighter than the full 
moon!!! Was this a bolide? PLEASE tell me someone else saw this in the 
Houston area? It was almost terrifying how bright it was and the greenish 
color was intense!!!
