The mp3 files are really the way to go. Imagine <DIV></DIV>>the database with native speakers pronouncing the meteorite names for all <DIV></DIV>>the world to hear with just a mouse click. Soon, as we drive across country, <DIV></DIV>>we can take the bird call CD out and pop in one to practice our meteorite <DIV></DIV>>names, for hours on end! <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>If we divide the workload, we can pull this off faster than the human genome <DIV></DIV>>project! I'll handle all the meteorites from Montana and Idaho since most <DIV></DIV>>people on this planet have accents, but we here in this area of the US have <DIV></DIV>>none. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>This is exciting. I can almost hear the hours upon hours of Texan drawl <DIV></DIV>>rattling off 280 or so meteorite names before handing off to Kansas! Oooo, <DIV></DIV>>can't you just hear the native southern Californian's bubble off meteorite <DIV></DIV>>names in beach-talk or valley-girlese. Cool meteorite names are not just for <DIV></DIV>>the French anymore! <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Cheers, <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Martin <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>On 4/4/02 11:58 PM, "Philip R.
