Hi Folks,

I'm going back to Coloma on Friday and staying for another week.

While I am there I would like to interview some witnesses in Coloma
and surrounding areas. Very few witnesses from near/inside the
strewnfield submitted reports to the AMS and it would be good to get
these reports.

When I do the interview, I usually use a tripod, inclinometer and GPS
compass. This allows me to capture the azimuth and elevation angles
for the beginning and ending points as accurately as possible. Any
data I gather I will submit to the AMS site and it will be publicly
available. I want to do these interviews in an attempt to improve the
information we have on the trajectory.

If you have any good witness reports from people you met in the field,
who actually saw the fireball or smoke trail please consider passing
on the witnesses contact info to me off list. A name and email or
phone number for each witness would be great.

Thanks,

Mike
