Through the error inherent in this distributed conversation, a new class of Leonids has been created. And as much as I wish the scientific community had recognized via nomenclature, the visual similarity between phosphenes and mass meteor showers, they have not.

I found the degradation of truth interesting more than anything else. I find it's important to remember that the internet is just one big game of telephone; fact WILL fall through the cracks; entropy IS unavoidable.
Thanks for the correction, it's quite accurate now,

Thanks for drawing my attention to this. The credit has now been updated. My apologies for any embarassment caused.
Alun,
No problem and no embarassment caused.
