Dear List Members,
   Classification is a means for simplification.
Sometimes square pegs have to be forced into round
holes to make things neat. In FACT , many meteorites
are unique and one of a kind, even if given the same
classification.........this is science! But, for the
convenience of study, square pegs fit round
holes....until a better scheme is devised. Sincerely,
dirk ross....Tokyo

There are many ways to describe an elephant....depends
on which end you are looking at!
