Just for fun...

Has anyone ever tried to predict the next meteorite fall, statistically?
Presumably if all the known falls and finds where entered into a
program, and the area's/countires with low falls would be scored
according land area vs proximity to known falls/finds

Obviously you would have to normalize for things like population and
number of possible fall witnesses and assume uniform fall distribution
on the earth.

Anyone any thoughts?
