A very bright meteor fireball exploded over Mauritius and Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean on Thursday, September 14, 2017 around 18.00 pm local time.

A facebook report said, "I saw it was in Grand Bay. A meteor that enter Mauritius skies. A like a firework in full speed at about 6: 07 pm today." Some observers say the phenomenon was accompanied by a loud noise. After fragmenting the bolide left a smoky trail.

According to Thierry, a Reunion Island resident, "I saw a kind of ball passing in the sky, it lasted about 7 seconds, with a very straight trajectory ... It was multicolored in fact, it was a large ball of mauve color, blue , with a white, yellow streak." About four minutes after seeing this phenomenon, Thierry describes hearing an explosion before experiencing a tremor.

Animanarchy (and Christian83 & parzival ) My friends - replies only! You should all know that - this is now our relatively (but not at all) private place to half ass email back and forth (as if the NSA wouldn't get us. ) . Remember, by replies only/not creating new comments, it's never seen scrolling down the right column etc.

Animanarchy, at the below re BK's invitation, you just posted at the article UK's Anti Fraud... [Link] this:

My worst fear about that plan is I think if I ever got caught it would effectively all be over for me. My future would be down the drain. If the wrong person ever learned my citizenship* (RC here. Do you need a (relatively) confidential comment which would probably be protectable under AC privilege - your results may likely vary, etc. - elsewhere? If so, say so and we'll deal with that first. ) and circumstances or even just identity such as through being carded I'd end up doing time and being extradited and eventually starting over totally from scratch on the streets if I didn't end up stuck in an internment camp. I would like to live on a farm but I have a decent if modest setup and routine here in my home area that I don't want to risk compromising. It took me a decade to find anywhere to rent here and that was only because a police sergeant knows my landlord and convinced him to rent to me. Basically since there are so many uncertainties as to what could occur I think it's more prudent of me to stay in a steady situation and not set out on an unpredictable adventure that has the potential to ruin my life if I were to be caught - ground the ball rather than throw a hail mary.

Dude, I understand your concerns better than you could ever know. I also know this: that I trust the peeps I've called in above to give a better guess of an answer than I can. (Granted, I've listed one UK and one US and you're CA.) I've been suckered like crazy and I'm only now aware enough to avoid such but I'm confident that in this life I'll never be able to give good advice to such concerns. I thus trust your concerns to my peeps - with kibitzing assured. If they must they can agree to a third tiebreaker/judge of our many qualified SOTTites to play that role. (Please create your own for that discusssion my friends.)

I sure look forward to what y'all have to say to Anima. He's kinda crazy, but that's why he's great - pureblood and SOTType. (I've bookmarked this under all three of y'all's names.

Animanarchy: I just entered this at YT: Do you exist under your moniker (which is, IMHO, top flight) elsewhere? I think so though I think that that might have been you in 09. Power thirst? I'm loving it! (Indeed, I've gotta at least call in two of the peeps :

Rowan Cocoan & Animarchy Man that’s a tough spot. I am stuck in ol Blighty so unable to really give any advice on the situation. I just don’t know America that well (at all, actually.)

Rowan Cocoan · 2022-01-28T17:25:44Z

Christian83 I think that A has reached his decision. All good. I've bookmarked this as a group location for the four of us.

Rowan Cocoan Yeah I saw. Can’t say I blame him, better to fortify what you have than risk it all.

Wish the chap some luck, whatever happens.
