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,
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
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

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,
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
I am deeply saddened to learn about the death of Christian, a fellow collector
and friend for so many many years.
Sadly, this is not the only terrible news from Austria, recently:

I never met Christian but I have had a few dealings via email - always a happy
experience.
We all know, deep down, that life is transitory and can disappear in an
instant, but it's still shocking when it hits close to home.

Hello Robert and all,
From an ancient German French Dictionary I have here,
Anger meant meadow or pasture.
A much more peaceful, pleasant, and appropriate meaning.
Maybe someone from across the Atlantic can come up with a
better tranlation.

Hi all -
I don't think so. Period.
That's not what Richard Norton taught in Rocks from Space.
Will someone here please set the IAU straight on this?
How about operationally, if it hits frei-punkt, its a meteorite, if it leaves a
hole in the ground or airbursts with enough force to make it

Gary and Matt cut some rare hammer material for me and
The loss was under 10% and the slices were PERFECT.
Also, they handled the material carefully after cutting so
none of the very thin slices were broken and they were speedy

Hi Listees,
Thanks to you all who've written in with kind words and comments on my
new article a few days back titled What is a Meteorite Strewnfield? I
really appreciate your compliments. I hope you all enjoyed it. If you
haven't read it yet please do so. It's a good informative read, and
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
Hi Eric:
For about a year, this was a topic for the editors of Meteorite magazine.
We decided to be consistent with strewnfield since we had the column From

Yes Chris, I fully agree with you regarding the
falling out of hyphenated words.
Another such example is portmanteau you are using here in your post.
This word derives from the French porte-manteau
