Michael and all,
There are a wide variety of pronunciations of Spanish words,
depending on country and even regeon.
However, Allende is in central Mexico - not Argentina or Portugal &
MOST people consider "proper" pronunciation to be the way a location
name is pronounced in the area in which it is located.
This is a topic that could go on FOREVER, with good arguments made
for a variety of pronunciation of MANY meteorites - for instance, we
pronounce the French city of Paris, Pare-iss - there, it is pronounced,
Par-ee.
Whatcha gunna do?
Michael
