Pluto

The fuss over Pluto losing its planetary status has been a little much for me, but it is definitely an improvement over the nonstop Mel Gibson and now JonBenet Ramsey resurrection coverage. It is a bit disturbing to think that all these years of memorization that there are nine planets have been wasted. I mean, think of the reprinting costs on Trivial Pursuit games! Still, I found Dave Ross' radio segment on Pluto this morning to be worthwhile listening to.

The news about pluto is a welcome distraction from some of the other drivel I see. I laughed at a cartoon I saw somewhere where two scientiist types are debating wheather or not earth now qualifies.
