Re: Pluto not a planet anymore
These astronomers sure have planet sized egos!

Pluto has been called a planet since what? 1930?

Who appointed these people the galactic executives over semantics and nomenclature?

What happens to the beings who live on Pluto now? Are they being demoted to lesser life forms as well? (Well you dont live on a real planet, so you are not important anymore!)

And is it proper to call it a "dwarf" planet? How about a "little" planet, or maybe "mass challenged"?
