Do you think there'll there be any bolide-remains? It'd be interesting for someone to investigate and
report.

I've told BIAD to get rid of them.
And stay off my laptop.
It's doubtful there would be any remains. The one I saw blew up spectacularly, but all of the "sparks", which were bitty little particles of "space rock", more like like "space dust", burned out way up in the sky, and never hit the ground. With the one in the video there is no telling. It's possible that remnants from the explosion could make it all the way to the ground. It was behind the houses still when it exploded, so it's impossible to say. One might try to find the landing area and hunt with a metal detector for iron fragments from it, but that landing area could be hundreds of miles away. Objects in the mirror may be closer than they appear, but objects in the sky are usually a lot farther away than they appear.
Thanks for getting rid of the speedos, but only death will un-burn that image from my brain. Speaking of burning, I recommend destroying the speedos with fire...
... or just send them to Mrs. G - they will never be seen again, I'm sure of it!

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
