Michael Michael, Well, I've heard the Buckleboo question enough times now until it's finally got my curiosity aroused. Google offers over 14,200 references to Buckleboo; most, I suspect, having to do with Buckleboo Station in South Australia. Turns out it's a hot area for real estate sales and investment. Who woulda thunk it? http://www.google.com/search?hl=enq=BuckleboobtnG=Google+Search One of the more colorful and descriptive sites is: http://www.buckleboo.com/buckleboo/index.htm You've sure got to hand it to the Aussies, though. They're nothing if not the most inventive people on the planet when it comes to naming their towns and places with the most strange and interesting sounds. I suspect Martin uses Buckleboo as a sign off because the word sorta tickles the tongue when spoken, the ear when heard, and the mind when thought of. It's even occured to me that when spoken in its native habitat it may even be threatening in nature. Or then maybe it just might have something to do with the Buckleboo meteorite as others have suggested. I guess only Martin Altmann knows for sure and I don't recall that he has explained it. Maybe we could gang up and tickle him 'til he 'fesses up one of these days.

Re: [meteorite-list] Buckleboo
I believe Martin said it was his favorite meteorite name. What's the harm in that?
