(6773) Kellaway Main-belt Asteroid
Discovered on 15 June 1988 by E. F. Helin at Palomar.
For her commentaries ridiculing management stupidities, Lucy Kellaway (b. 1959) of the Financial Times received the 2006 British Press Award for “Columnist of the Year”. Her hand is also evident in the ongoing saga of e-mails as “Martin Lukes” pathetically markets Integethics™ at the dysfunctional a-b glöbâl company.Naming citation (20060413/MPCPages.arc), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
