<HTML>Hi Anthony,
Actually I made the mistake of using the symbols I normally do on the GH board (at least I thought I had) to emphasize the following paragraph from spaceweather.com (ie, I hadn't meant for it to be a link, not that I would of known the coding anyway). Today they have it reported there... saying it probably was a small disintegrating asteroid... spectacular, but posing little danger... guess not... unless it ends up in Tonguska!

("A 100-m wide near-Earth asteroid, 2000 PH5, will zoom past our planet on July 25th just five times more distant than the Moon. Such nearby asteroids are often easy to spot through amateur telescopes, but this one will be very dim (visual magnitude 18). At closest approach this week, 2000 PH5 will lie between our planet and the Sun. The space rock's hard-to-see night side will be facing Earth -- dark and elusive like a New Moon.")

Sorry!
