Excellent work!  Your writeup was wonderful and makes 
me *almost* feel guilty about the 9-in-a-row cloudless, dewless 
all-nighters at the 9200 foot level in the White Mountains 
last July.  One often loses sight of the extra degree of 
difficulty many of you face during much of the year.

Excellent!  I was looking at the lengths of the brighter
parts of the trail and wondering if the object was tumbling
when it entered the atmosphere.  Other alternative is
that different layers evaporated at different rates.  Think
I like the tumbling theory?
