Re: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger

I just opened my mail and the shock was immediate: 51 mails entitled: Christian Anger! Could not be some good news. Christian was, since the first edition of Ensisheim show, our brightest light, our eternal smiling, a happy to live, cool, energetic, joking, teasing, dancing, charming,

Re: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger

I was deeply saddened to read this tragic news. Christian was one of the first people I bought a meteorite from and he was only too happy to help me out then and at all times. I was delighted that I could serve on the IMCA Board with Christian when he was voted onto it in the first election. My

Re: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger

Terrible news, very hard to acknowledge. People like Christian, and particularly him, made events like Munich and the Ensisheim show such a great experience. Such an open minded, enthusiatic and delightful person he was, I can not imagine anybody who did not like him. So many hillarious summer

Dear List I too was shocked to hear of the death of Christian. I did get the opportunity to speak to him briefly at Ensisheim and he struck me as gentle giant and a fine pillar of the meteorite community. Like Zelimir, when I opened my e-mail inbox this morning, a chill went through down my

(From Mike)    I am shocked and saddened by the loss of Christian, a friend who was taken long before his time. I met Christian for the first time at the  Gifhorn show, like 1997 perhaps 98. He was one of the friendliest people on this planet, always smiling, joking, laughing. Never in a hurry,

Re: [meteorite-list] Christian Anger

These are very, very sad news. Christian will truely be missed, and my thoughts and prayers are with his friends and relatives. I knew Christian since many years, and he used to visit me at my home prior to the Ensisheim shows to talk about our favorite passion, and to show off or to trade rocks

This is English you're talking about. What is correct is determined by usage. Strewn field is undoubtedly acceptable, and is the traditional way of writing it. However, there is a growing trend in recent English usage to construct hybrid or portmanteau words- especially in technical areas
