TiPS was a "wow" from Colorado Springs on 1996 July 15, "spooky" just as Dave Cappelluci described it. I followed it from 03:41 to 03:45 UT with max el 35 deg in the NE. It appeared as a ghostly line leaning forwards at about 40 deg to the vertical. Maximum length was 14' arc. Limiting mag in handheld 20x80 binocs was about +9. I didn't see the top weight (Norton), but the bottom weight (Ralph) appeared occasionally, brightening to about +7. David.
