"The U.S. military also has a technical term which is
specifically defined as the 48 contiguous states, but is
silent on the District of Columbia: CONUS."

CONUS = CONtinental US = "the lower 48" = the 48 contiguous states = all of
the US states except Hawaii and Alaska. See
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_United_States"

I had never heard of CONUS until I saw it in a dealer's ad here on the
meteorite list a few months ago.

Regards,

Bob
