The Nostaliga Factor

I think I may have mentioned this before, but I am still really upset about Pluto's demotion from planet to dwarf planet. An eight-planet solar system? Lame. Nine planets is the way to go. It's how it has been (at least as long as I've paid attention), odd numbers make way more sense than even, and, well, it's just not fair to demote a planet willy-nilly like that!

Here's a recent NY Times article/blog about the topic: How Many Planets Do You Want in the Solar System?

Vote for Pluto people, it's the right way to go! In this instance, do NOT "be the change!"
