You should have her join the list - she'll fit right in!

Subject: [meteorite-list] Silly-sounding Meteorite Names
Martin and Bill:
My 6 year old respectfully disagrees! 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.

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
