So, does the thought go through anyone's mind that -- if the thing really was a missle of some sort -- that it could in some strange way be related to the Carnival cruise ship that had the engine fire in and around the same timeframe. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/10/world/americas/10briefs-Mexico.html. Some military ships were indeed reportedly pulled AWAY from training exercises to go help respond to the stranded passengers and deliver food and supplies to them. Maybe it was a distress flare from the upset strandees?

This is a good place to start in my opinion -- http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7653564598486729089#
