[meteorite-list] Name the new Canadian fall

[tett]

Jeff and List,

Wondering who has final authority in naming new meteorites?  I know there 
are some general guidelines (nearest post office or town or landmark) but 
who has final say?  Will the peopel from U of Calgary be allowed input?  Can 
the met list opinion influence the final name?

I am asking these questions in hopes of influencing the final name of the 
new Canadian fall.  It has been rerefed to as Lone Rock (too John Waynish 
for a Canadian stone), Marsden (Not bad but no distinct Canadian sound), 
Lloydminster (Getting better) and Buzzard Coulee (Now we are talking!)

Looking at the map there are some other cool names close by such as Unwin, 
Zumbro and Manitou Lake.  Manitou being the Ojibwey name for the Great 
Spirit or spirits.

Well, if it counts, my vote would be for Buzzard Coulee.

Cheers,
