Dear List,
I am sending this email in response to an ongoing thread regarding
provisional names and numbers for new finds. I hope this puts an end to
the thread. I have contacted the Nomenclature regarding this issue and
received the following response.
Dear Sonny,
Thanks for your phone message as well as this email.
You can look up the committee membership and the rules and guidelines
on the Meteoritical Society website.
The Committee has no requirements regarding getting provisional
numbers within a fixed time. In fact there is no requirement to get a
provisional >number at all. If you want to just submit a meteorite at
the time it is classified that is fine. Similarly, there is no time
requirement for submitting a >new find. When fragments are clearly
paired it is fine to include them all in the same number.
I hope this clarifies things.
I hope this will end the harassment from Mr. Bob Verish and Team
Verish. As you can see I have done nothing wrong in the delay of
getting provisonal numbers and names for all of my new finds. I have
chosen to complete field study work before aquiring any provisional
names or numbers.
Below is an excerpt from one of Bob's emails.
Guess I'm just jealous that Sonny gets to do things
his way, and I'm forced to abide by "guidelines".

months have been focused negativley on my finds.
Thanks,
Sonny
