We love VBA, and we plan to keep it around for the foreseeable future.

Please keep VBA, I spent a long time mastering it.

You can replace it around 2090, the year I plan on finally dying.

Thx.

Are the Taurids the fastest known meteor shower?

I think I read the Leonids come in at 30,000 MPH, but when we are talking speed I know it is all relative, of course.

But, am I right in that the Taurids tend to have more rock than other showers, like the Leonids, which are normally just specks of ice? And if so, does this affect the speed in space and thus make them hit our atmosphere at a higher velocity?

Thanks!

Oh awesome, I was dead wrong about the Leonids, today I learned!

I am so glad to know I am not the only one who uses VBA in such extreme ways.

Any idea or prediction about possible swarm rates?

I watched the Leonids in 1999 and it was awesome during the peak, any chance of anything that spectacular?
