    Poor Pluto. Pluto used to be one of my nine favorite planets. Now I am hearing there are 12 planets and Pluto isn't one of them.

    How would you like to be a planet for 80 years than you pick up your morning paper and bam you're some big cold rock, nothing more. What a bummer for the little guy!

    And I thought I had a bad day on Monday.

    If Neptune is in play that means that other planet next to Neptune should be up for review. I say rename that planet as Pluto. I never did like that name.

    This is a question but since Pluto is the major planet and the bigger one and since it looks like pluto interferes with Neptune and not vice versa...therefore Neptune is spared:confused:
