Greetings Al, Adam, List,
My thoughts went to Dr. Nininger also, but since he has already
recieved the honor, my next thought went to the man who's responsible
for alot of us having the knowledg we now have. What do you all think

Just a quick note on this earlier post. If Chladnite should be accepted by
the Nom. Comm. then the Vesta meteorites could become known as the "CHED"

Hello, Mike, Mark and the list,
to me it sounds a legend, no people has been killed by meteorites.
Maybe the keyword is "reported". In earlier history you can find
several cases, like 1829, July, US, an indian killed (Athenm 1836,
p. 803).

If meteorites don't corkscrew then why aren't they all fully orientated?
