This whole thing stemmed from the lack of a true definition of planet until they voted on one this morning. Now there is a unified definition agreed upon by astronomers. http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science...24-pluto_x.htm (see the sidebar for the actual resolution)
Remember Ceres was once a planet as well, not just an asteroid. Also Pluto's statis has been debated since it's discovery in 1930 which isn't that long considering how long we've known about many of the other planets.
