Hi all again:
Those who study impacts on Earth and other bodies tend to use the terms
impactors and bolides for the things that make holes in the ground but too
big leave any meteorite. This gets around the asteroid/comet problem.
I just got this from WIkipedia (same article that Sterling used?:

Hi, Larry, Chris, List,
In many ways, this mess is about the "terms
of the trade." It is essential that those working
in a specific specialty understand what each
other mean when they discuss the subject.

for the things that make holes in the ground,"

I just received this email (below) from Hanno, with very sad news.

Hi Sterling:
Yes, it is not uncommon for definitions to be, unfortunately for the
general public, to be in the context of who is studying what. Cratering
people do not necessarily care what caused the impact (asteroid or comet)
other than in the modeling that includes parameters such as density, e
