On March 8th  we had an interesting re-entry ?  of an object that was
observed across the State of Florida.  From down here in Ft. Myers  it
appeared at 6:40p.m. EST at an azimuth of 50   deg above my local horizon.
They consisted of *two*  bodies travelling side by side 6 degrees apart -
there were no "fireworks" as you might expect from a spent booster etc....
it was not barrium in fact they apeared much like two comets one of the two
was even sporting a short tail.  If you have heard what these were please
let me know as our phones are still ringing thank you all

Ft Myers is at 81.8 W, 26.6 N
