Well ... almost. I was standing at a bus stop last week when something clicked sharply on the plastic roof of a bus shelter. Everyone looked up, then down. A rock fell just next to my feet. Nobody stood up from the bench or was particularly interested to come and take a look, so I picked it up and brought home.
A mate of mine works at a medical sterilization facility where they use accelerators so he measured it to see if it was radioactive - it was not.
We thought about a kid with a slingshot but the bus stop is in an industrial area, just near a dairy plant, and there's a highway and old rail tracks. The time was 9:30 am, so the kids were (supposedly) at school. Who knows, though.
Sorry, I can't post larger pictures because of file size restrictions, but even without a magnifying glass you can see bright silvery speckles embedded in it.
