What’s next? The American town of Wyoming?

Someone should ping Matt Parker or someone who knows how to code such a lookup program :)
No need for Matt Parker, just anyone who can program and has a textbook covering graph algorithms. Actually the graph is probably small enough it would be easier to do it by hand than to code a solution.
I had to do a double take a few times on my news feed as weird things like wild fires and air plane crashes were being reported in Ontario … California!
I just had to cross post it to [email protected]!
“Well, it ain’t a meteor.”
“Yeah, it is! It came out of the sky!”
“Well I’m sure it did but it ain’t no meteor. It’s a big ol’ frozen chunk o’ shit. See them airplanes they dump their toilets 36,000 feet. The stuff freezes and falls to earth. We call 'em Boeing bombs.”
That’s a big ol’ frozen chunk o’ poopie!
When I was a kid, I remember seeing an ad in my belovedly ridiculous, now defunct Weekly World News for anti-meteorite bracelets. Maybe I should have gotten one.
And if you had also ordered the ‘X-Ray Glasses’ … you’d be able to lie in bed at night and see right through your roof to keep on eye out for any falling meteorites
Anybody know… how many people can say they survived being struck by a freaking space rock?
Only one person (that we know of) was ever killed by one- https://phys.org/news/2020-04-terrible-luck-person-meteoriteback.html
so… do you think she picked up any super powers?
