[meteorite-list] Giving credit where (official) credit is due

A wise man once said, "Sonny has been one of
the most successful meteorite hunters to appear in the
last few years, and he deserves nothing but credit..."
which no one can deny.  But that's all I'm asking of
Sonny; to get the "credit" he deserves by securing it
with provisional names and numbers.

Otherwise, some other person could make another find
from his "study area" unknowingly, and go ahead of him
with getting that area named and 001 number approved,
and worse, get published before Sonny could get proper
credit.

That's only one of many good reasons,
Bob V.
