Super idea Mark! So the competition for the holiday contest "Best
Sounding Fictitious Meteorite Names" is on! Just come up with ten names that you'd
like to see in the Meteoritical Bulletin and I will award a "Meteorhall Grand
Prize". More on the prize list later, and I promise that the prizes will have
something to do with H. H. Nininger (And nothing to do with a Nininger toilet.
No offense meant, Dave.) The prizes will be worthwhile. After all, it is the
season of giving!
Here are the rules:
1. Keep the names clean, and no hitting below the belt!
2. Have fun!
3. Entries must be posted by the 19 of December 2003.
4. I will choose 3 finalists, then I will let my dog Holbrook pull a name out
of a hat. Of course I will have to tie the name tags to dog treats, but what
the heck, Holbrook is nearly as qualified to decide this contest as I am, as
Holbrook is a middle age dog and I'm an old dog.
5. Prizes will be mailed either just before Christmas or just after the rush,
whenever I get time to go and stand in line at the Post Office. But never
fear, they will be awarded before 2004.
High Regards, Fred Hall/Meteorhall
