Pluto is no longer a planet. Strangley I'm annoyed by the move, growing up it was always the tiny cold planet, why the hell change it.

wierdest rant I've had for a while.

Nah, no thunder stolen.
I think it's a crock of sh*t!!!!
To me, Pluto will ALWAYS be #9!!!!!!
Next thing you know, all the "young newbie astronomers" will be comparing "rocks" and there will only be two planets (Saturn and Jupiter) - the rest of us measly rocks will be "roids".

I remember back in ye ole school days being taught about the big 9. My imagination flew a bazzillion miles away when it came to Pluto. I always wanted to sit on it and watch a "Rising Sun plus 8" (they'd all be little dots, but hey.)
