Watching a meteor shower is kind of like fishing. Most of the time is spent waiting, watching, and spending quiet time alone or with a few others. Conversation is meant to be subdued, kind of like you are in a sacred place. With the first bite, the first streak of light- everyone points and gasps and then the conversation picks up. “Did you see that?!” “It was over there, maybe there will be more there!” “Oh I missed it!”
