The Planets

Anyone else feel sorry for Pluto for being demoted... I know I do.



Mean inner planets, reducing it to a less important celestial body, just because it's orbit is a little oval, and it's a little small. It's like the little kid on the playground being picked on.

Or maybe it's just me.

I feel so badly too! I was just reading about the discovery of Pluto the other day in "The History of Nearly Everythin" by Bill Bryson (?I think that's it). Now he'll have to change his book. The amazing thing is that there is an entire committee who actually spent time (and probably tax payer's dollars) to debate this issue. It was all over NPR. Poor Pluto. I'll still support it.
