Just a note... The Fort Collins, Colorado meteor/fireball seems to be
unrelated to the Nebraska/South Dakota fireball.
For the 10-19-11, AMS website has the events at 22:15 for the Fort
Collins, CO event, and 03:15 for the SD/NE event.

Here is a picture of a meteorite we found copper in. With the recent discussion
of gold and stuff in meteorites, I thought this would be of interest.
Hope everyone is doing well,

Dear List Anagrammatists,
There are perfect anagram meteorite pairings out there! Some real good
ones!
Though a perfect anagram where the letters of one are rearranged
exactly into the letters of another withough leaving out any letters on
either, is not necessarily a winner according to
Just a note... The Fort Collins, Colorado meteor/fireball seems to be

For the 10-19-11, AMS website has the events at 22:15 for the Fort
Collins, CO event, and 03:15 for the SD/NE event.
I wonder if one of those times is Universal Time (UT)
Note that the data I posted from Denver was almost certainly the same as
the SD/NE event, 2011-10-19 02:25:00 MDT (03:25 CDT), AMS 1180. I didn't
receive any witness reports for this, presumably because it was so low,
and the hour was so late.
Bonus questions:
What is the only meteorite name to use all the vowels, including y
(a-e-i-o-u-y), where each vowel is used only once?
There are 8 meteorite names (that I can find) for which all of the
letters in the name occur in alphabetical order. The longest has 6
letters. What is it?
Hi Doug and List,
Interesting challenge. And not as easy as it first seemed. Here are
a few I came up with. These are not perfect anagrams, but use some or
most of the letters -
Albareto (1766, Fall, Italy) = Alberta (1949, Fall, Congo)
Al Rais (1957, Fall, Saudi Arabia) = Alais (1806,
Thanks Mike fr the entry, I don't mind if you post to the list or send
in private, up to you guys ---
If anyone wants to kick in another prize please do!
Note: Cali (2007, Fall, Colombia) = Calivo (1916, Fall, Phillipines)
doesn't work according to the rules I think and in any case would
Hi Jeff,
I know the answer for the first question. But I guess that it is not a right
thing
to publish it because I used my computer to find it out ;-)
Good questions!
Now I will play a bit more to find the other answers.
First I will need to translate for my self what palindrome is ;-)

Jeff asked:

(a-e-i-o-u-y), where each vowel is used only once?
May I partcipate in the bonus question (and what's the prize?)
My entry is (valid entry under the honor system):
Sierra County
Kindest wishes
Doug
Great, Doug!
I already know the answer for the palindromes! ;-)
Actually I have 4 names but one is a Pseudometeorite. This one is Aba.
As I said, I will not publish my answers because I'm in a better position
and have a connection to the EoM database.
Working on the second one...

How else could you provide us some of the finest localities to some of
us crazies, if not by written telepathy? (really your language
subroutines need a richer idiom capability, something only you probably
