[meteorite-list] I, persidious!

[David Freeman]

Dear Pat, and meteorite central email list;
I have corrupted the word "persid", meaning the persids meteor shower. 
 I, persidious, being  that I am taken up with or are "of" persid meteor 
shower.....I presume that the meteor shower was named after some greek 
explorer if I had a guess.

Any List member care to take a shot at this one?

Not as much persidious as I once thought,
Dave Freeman
