Default Re-entry or Meteor? Texas

Was reported on the local Dallas news and seen by many... but no details
have surfaced yet.

2nd hand info from observer: Wed 7-7-04 about 9:10 - 9:15 PM NE to SW -
large green fireball with orange vapor trail, size of dime (or larger!) at
arm's length, cylinder shape, tail was 20-30% length of sky. simply
"vanished" - no fade or explosion.

Any ideas? She seemed to be able to describe normal meteorites and saw
space shuttle re-entry, so she had point of reference.
"never seen anything like this ever"
