 Last night while I was on the phone with a buddy of mine in California, I
 asked him if he had heard of you.  He said no, but thought he remembered you
 from a SKY & TELESCOPE magazine from a while back, in an article.  Just
wanted
 to know if you were in one, and if you were, what issue.
 
 Mahalo & Aloha,

Matt,
I'm mentioned or referred to several times in both Sky and Telescope and
Astronomy along with a couple meteor photos. Usually in the Readers Reports or
something like that. I have not written any articles for either magazine, only
sent in some of my observations during some of the major meteor showers of the
last several years. Nothing heavy duty.  I have had a few of my short articles
printed in astronomy club type newsletters, but I haven't kept track with
whom. For what it's worth, you can find my cameo appearances in Sky and
Telescope for the following editions:
October 1996 pg 95
December 1996 pg 107
April 1996 pg 96
There is another month with a meteor photo of mine, but I don't have the copy
anymore. I think it's during the month of November...not sure what year?
Judging from the cluster of 1996 above, it could be in 1995 or 1996?

and in Astronomy magazine for the following editions:
April 1996 page 72 and 106
Feb 1995 pg 109
Sept 1995 pg 109
April 1997 pg 120

If you speak Norwegian, I have a meteor photo in a relatively new Norwegian
8th grade geography book. It's a very nice book by the way...but I only look
at the pictures. It's the same photo that's on the cover of IMO's June 1998
WGN journal.

I hope this answers what you are looking for?
