She laughs at the Australian names like Milly Milly, Laundry Rockhole, and Kittakittaooloo. She also likes Fuzzy Creek, Elephant Moraine, Two Buttes, Belly River, Lumpkin, Cartoonkana, Bununu, and Muleshoe. Phil Whitmer Joshua Tree Earth & Space Museum -------------------- Hello Bill and list member, "I don't see how any are actually silly." (Bill) I agree with you, Bill! I do love the "amount of flair" in international meteorite names. It reflects the global variety of the 'meteorite world' we list members do actually live in. Maybe we should rather talk about the most inspiring or inspired names. Or invent, for fun, new additional and inofficial names (depending on structure of matrix, crust or shape of the meteorite etc.) for the somehow 'austere' NWA numbers. Just an idea. Best wishes to all of you Martin ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Fri 02 Sep 2011 01:04:39 PM PDT |
