Re-2: [meteorite-list] A small Al Mahbas testimonial (& RainbowOlivine!)

Hi Tracy, Jeff, Norm, and List,

"schiller" comes from the German word "schillern"
and means "scintillate". The "n" disappears when
you combine the word "schillern" + "Effekt", so that
would also be the "Schillereffekt" in German.

Cheers,

Bernd
