There was damage, all things considered, we were lucky.

BTW, there was a meteor in SF yesterday too. http://www.wptv.com/dpp/news/science...flash-of-light

Seems it is not that rare an occurrence.
I saw this on the news last night, and they all acted like they never saw a shooting star before. Everyone has seen shooting stars, but all of a sudden the geniuses of cable news are asking "what is that light in the sky?"
