OK.
Unfortunatelly we have here two worlds.
World of science and comercial world. Unfortunatelly science world make
rules here :)

So what will happend if strewfield will be in half way beetween 2 towns ? It
will have name of town closer to bigger specimens or not ? :)) Or we will be
have X-Y like Gao-Guenie ? :))

Its for me little funny now. One meteorite will be have now 2 names.
Official and unofficial.
I only hope that noone will return Amgala purchased from me becouse its not
Oum Dreyga :))
