    That sucks! A multi generational home? Sins of the father? What did the dog do?

    Stories related by Edith Hamilton or written by Niel Giaman come to mind.

    It will take two weeks for investigators to determine the cause of the fire. I would say there would have to be fragments
    of the meteorite left in the structure. The meteorite would have to be in the "stony" class and as such would be extremely hot. I wonder if it was from the Mars-Jupiter asteroid belt?
