Planetary Demotion!

I just read that they decided to demote Pluto from planetary status!

EGADS!

Ah - to be a fly on the wall during that 'combative' debate amongst the astronomers. I bet much galatial smack talk was laid down. They even mocked the former planet with a stuffed animal and an umbrella. Whooosh - them Astronomers and their sense of humor, boy.

I can't wait for the ACLU to jump in and claim 'Size discrimination' on this one. Ba dump dump.

On another note...I feel so betrayed that I have always been taught there are 9 planets in the solar system. Oh what to do with all those foam ball models of the solar system out there put together by elementary school kids just trying to conform to the ages old nine-planet standard (imposed by the MAN who is beholden to Pluto interests)!

Will they all fail now?

Will landfills explode because of excessive little foam ball Plutos suddenly flooding the garbage trucks?

I fear the end is nigh...
