Here's an idea. I will volunteer to keep a online database on my site of as many meteorites and how to pronounce them so we can all get this figured out. If anyone knows how to pronounce alot of the meteorite names please send me an e-mail with the ones you know and I will put a site up so we can all get to know how.
