Meteor sighting Las Vegas 9/22?

Did anyone around Las Vegas see an extremely bright meteor coming in
from the west on almost a horizontal path around 7:35pm PDT yesterday
9/22? I was hiking with a friend down Turtlehead Peak in Red Rock
Canyon and the meteor didn't quite light up the sky coming toward us
over the western mountains but it left a bright and long red/white
trail, and apparently it dissipated in a huge dust cloud when it got
with 10 or 20 miles or so.

If you were looking up at the sky to the west of Vegas at the exact
time you won't have missed it, but the entire fiery descent lasted only
about 30 seconds.

One of this day's there will be bigger rock heading towards
earth.... WARHOL TOLD THE WORLD ALREADY TO START THE
EXODUS.....

Elizabeth 11 the black spot, Curse will be on you... only one
week to go.... The curse
you carry can be broken only if a once-plundered treasure is
restored.... Soon the curse is effecting everything - and the
Earth itself will be in danger.

You most definitely need to start buying that **** instead of
distilling your own.

It turned out to be a rocket launch from Vandenburg AFB--see Skywise's
post and link. I've seen similar trails in the sky above Las Vegas before.

Andy Warhol had more than the usual 15 minutes of fame, but he's dead now.

"Warhol," I think you need to check with a shrink and get your meds
increased.

Right.

All those Astronomers must be asleep. Or something is wrong with the Aurora
lights, since they would be going crazy with the burst of radiation.

Lame...... (as are most of your posts)...

[diatribe snipped]

Well, I think that was an inadvertent compliment, given the incoherent
BS that followed.
