WTF... they demoted Pluto
I'm so sad. I always liked little Pluto, way out there by itself, sometimes hanging out around Neptune. I guess now when we're old we can talk to our grandkids like, "when I was your age there were 9 planets, Sally, 9, not 8."

Now my poem won't work..."My (Mercury) Very (Venus) Elderly (Earth) Mother (Mars) Just (Jupiter) Served (Saturn) Us (Uranus) Nine (Neptune) Pizzas (Pluto)....
So now it's just, nothing? Bull! So, so stupid.
Cara,
I agree. I read that article with a very heavy heart this morning. I think they chose that "round orbit" definition just to get rid of Pluto.
What food begins with an "N"? I'm drawing a blank here. I can't finish the line.
Walt disney must be rolling over in his cryo-chamber, mickey's beloved pet's name means nothing now!
I believe that the 3 newbies have been classified, along with Pluto, as "dwarf planets"... However, I've heard the planets saying that they prefer to be referred to as "little planets" rather than dwarfs. :)
