A related faux pas: desalinization. No such word, but I bet it will become one so as not to embarrass the media members who like to use it. ;-). --Rob ________________________________________ From: Meteorite-list [meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com] on behalf of Pete Modreski via Meteorite-list [meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com] Sent: Monday, May 09, 2016 10:46 AM To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Oriented vs Orientated
My other favorite word that gets used by non-geologists: metamorphosized . (Do you Brits use that one, by chance?) I think it fits the rhythym better in some songs and poems.

Just to let you know in advance I use some really bizarre words and if it's in the English dictionary (UK version) I will use it! I won't shun you for your choice of words so please don't shun me :-) we are all different.
