Jeff,
Does the Nomenclature Committed assign official synonyms such as West as
well?
As they say, it is hard to get the toothpaste back in the tube once it is
out.

Urban legends are already growing: When struck by the meteorite, the
creek became as ash.

Anyway, dear
One problem with naming a meteorite too soon is that we end up with
meteorites like Norton County, Kansas.
One problem with naming a meteorite too late is that we end up with
meteorites like Ash Creek.
I assume that Ash Creek runs in both McLennan County and Hill County?
From that aspect

The other problem is that there is an Arizona meteorite classified as Little
Ash Creek - confusing may be?
No, just be sure to let people know that it is from the big-ash fall.

So, does this make West and Ash Creek Officially Paired?

Perhaps Ash Creek will cost less per gram than West... ;-)

: [meteorite-list] Name of Texas Fall: Ash Creek
Chris,
If I write a scientific paper, I will call it Ash Creek. For
commercial
purposes, if it isn't illegal, I will keep calling it West.
After all, that is the purpose of having synonyms is so that you can
call
things by other names, right

I think this is a very simple and rational idea that will help avoid
confusion and conflicts down the road.

Hi Dr. Jeff and List,
I, for one, am tickled that the WEST, Texas fall has been officially
named anything but WEST.
Years ago I became aware of the methods and criteria used by the
Nomenclature Committee for
naming any new fall or find. So it was obvious that the name WEST was
premature.
name: (Ash Creek) and...
Location of find/fall: (West, Texas).
I believe that does it. ;^)
