Here is what I got:

You love the good life. You live extravagantly and like everything around you to be beautifully crafted. You are optimistic, have an excellent sense of humor and enjoy having your friends around you. You normally go against social rules and regulations. Overall you and your fellow forum members get along just great.

That is just shallow. -1

These are "New Englanders" reporting a possible plane crash... quite understandable in my opinion. If any region of the country would be on edge about plane crashes, I would expect them to be.

A meteor shower, you understand are huge hunks of rock and iron falling from the sky at thousands of miles per hour. They typically burst into flames, and often are incenerated before impact... thus creating the lights and flashes.
It is not uncommon for some of these rocks to actually "survive" and crash into the ground, causeing forest fires, destroyed property, and make huge crashing - ground rubbling sounds.

Stupid is certainly not the term to use, perhaps ignorance to the cellestrial events, but the best term to use...in my opinion would be concern.

100% agree, well said.

beer:

People are stupid for thinking a plane crashed? Perhaps from a distance one would believe the meteor shower resembled a plane crash.

I would do it too, stars as they are freak me out.

We Americans are indeed stupid, as is the rest of the human race. However, that is a poor example of it. Below is a fine example of American/Human stupidity.
