Do not take this the wrong way, but I am always a little confused about people feeling about the whole planet-dwarf_planet thing so strongly. Pluto is still out there, just as it was a hundred years ago, when nobody knew it existed. And just recently, NASA sent a probe Pluto's way, that managed to amaze me, an outspoken Pluto-hater[0]: Turns out that Pluto is much more complex than people had anticipated. Who cares what the IAU decides to call it? It is what it is. You could call a rose a turd, and it still would not smell as badly. ;-) [0] Okay, I do not hate Pluto. I just wish NASA, ESA or whoever would send a couple of probes to Uranus and Neptune. I feel very strongly about this.
