That's pretty much how I was thinking, although I hope Igor's mother didn't get too much of a fright. I'd have needed a change of trousers after something like that. A couple of years ago I heard the sonic boom from a small meteor that passed over here, but I must have been looking the wrong way as I didn't see it. I was up on the hills at the time and thought there had been a big explosion either in the port or downtown. A lack of smoke had me confused until I read the news reports later in the day. Can't be much fun with broken windows and no gas in those temperatures. Hope everything gets back to normal soon, Igor!
