Jeff,
 
Does the Nomenclature Committed assign "official synonyms" such as West as
well?
 
As they say, it is hard to get the toothpaste back in the tube once it is

I just wanted everybody on the list to know that the Nomenclature
Committee has approved the name of the recent fall near West,
Texas. It will have the official name "Ash Creek". See this and 38
other recent approvals at:
