strange light flash

Did anyone see the bright flash of blue light tonight? I assumed it was an airplane, but the news just said it was a meteor whatever it be it was bright! :shock:

About 15 years ago I was pulling up to the duck hole one morning and the whole sky lit up this weird green, kinda like a transformer blew.

Found out later it was space junk entering the atmosphere.

Think i saw that one, I was unlocking a gate at the hunting wcamp. Saw it again about 5 or 6 years ago on Starkville. Both times you could see a trail of bright dust. I remember reading an article on the first one saying it was space junk and the light was seen from alabama to texas.

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who saw it. But then, I'm not paranoid or anything. By the way, what's your angle? 8)

so last night, the wife made me watch the movie "knowing" about a girl who predicted each and every major disaster that happened between 1959 and 2009. the last predicton had to do with the end of the world caused by a solar flare. i didnt see the light show last night, but it sounds to me like it was going on at the same time the world was being destroyed by the sun in the movie. i suspect if i had seen what was going on outside last night i would have died of a heart attack or at the very lease, would have to be committed to the looney bin.
