Hi,

You all know that a meteorwrong is a suspected rock or metal piece that is not a meteorite, right? Anyway,it was storming outside, so I had some free time and was thinking up some new meteorite words to play around with. Kind of a stupid exercise but was fun.

Meteorwriter: Someone who writes a book or article about meteors/meteorites. Postings in forums don't count.

Meteorighter: Someone who corrects meteor/meteorite mistakes. Also a meteorite ombudsman.

Meteorbite: What happens when someone buys their first meteorite, gets hooked and collects more.

Meteortykes: Newbies (or young kids) collecting or learning about meteors/meteorites.


Carl
