Oh come on Steve,
Orientation has absolutely nothing to do with an persons interpretation.
Orientation will have obvious proof that the meteorite maintained a stable 
flight for a significant duration of its descent. 
Sorry flow lines dont cut it. Last time I was at the Tucson show and that one 
guy had like 3000 SA individuals for sale, I could find a flow line on every 
piece that I Iooked at. Were they all oriented ??
Honestly, I dont care what you call the piece.
The only thing that pisses me off is when I buy a piece labeled oriented and it 
really isnt.
Yes that has happened before cause some ebay auctions dont have the best 
photos.
