All adult webmasters should unite and serving porn until they call it Pluto again.

Just to put some pressure on the scientific community. :1orglaugh

A Pluto by any other name doth not a Milky Way make.
Well, at least No. 134340 ruins my appetite.

pluto deserves to be kept as pluto.

Gordie: Mickey is a mouse, Donald is a duck, Pluto is a dog. What's Goofy...?
Teddy: He's a dog, he's definitely a dog...
Chris: He can't be a dog, he wears a hat and drives a car...
Vern: Yeah, that is weird. What the hell is Goofy?

Wrong! We have 8 planets now not 12. Try keeping up.

Pluto is nonluminous, larger than an asteroid or comet, is illuminated by light from the Sun, and revolves around a star (the Sun).

But I guess they do have some rationalising data against it....I'm kind of a science buff. :winkwink:

Well you could the same thing about the MOON. The moon isn't a planet. more than likely Pluto was a moon of Neptune that got it's orbit fucked up.

The Moon is a satellite, as it revolves around a body other than a star.

(c) has cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit.

Now lets take a look at the definition of a dwarf planet according to the IAU:

(2) A ?dwarf planet? is a celestial body that
(a) is in orbit around the Sun,
(b) has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a hydrostatic equalibrium (nearly round) shape,
(c) has not cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit, and
(d) is not a satellite.

Oh I read that wrong...well, Pluto was never orbiting any other body other than the Sun, fact.

It's still Pluto, but instead of being a planet, it's now an dwarf planet and has a small object number of 134340. The official name is 134340 Pluto.

Personally, I think this idea sucks... we all grew up with Pluto being a planet, right? So add a few: Ceres, Charon (the other object in Pluto's orbit making it a doubleplanet) and Eris (what was UB313, with it's new name...)
