Pluto is not a planet

CNN have just done a newsflash with the following on it :-

So what exactly is it then ?

All my school science lessons re astral matters have just been turned around.

So are they next gonna tell us that The Moon is made of cheese after all ?

Edit : Here's The Link

poor Pluto, where is it going to go? What's it going to do?

If I was Pluto I'd go and find myself a solar system where I was accepted as a planet.

Pluto Lives!

Its not so much that pluto isn't a planet, its the fact that if you accept Pluto as a planet then you may have to accept many many more objects out there as planets too, depending on your exact definition of what a planet is

But I guess you knew that

Well, the Bible clearly says that Pluto is a ... a ... uhm ... can any Creationists help me out here???

It will be a Dwarf Planet or Planetoid according to the Register

yep, 8 planets and 3 new plutoid class (or dwarf) planets. So a bit a compromise. Pluto remains a planet but is classed as a plutoid class planet.

shoot the dog and nuke the Planetoid...

Are there nukes with that kind of range?

Why can't they just, like, leave Pluto alone!

Why must they always pick on the little ones? Planetary mobbing, that's what it is!

Luckily for the dog and the LGM I don't always do what I'm told.

If they can send bloody mini-rovers to Mars why not a whole fleet of nukes to Pluto? Imagine the challenge for science...

The Moon IS made of cheese. Nobody ever listens to me!

Google "The Sorrows of Pluto" and then click Images to see a brilliant little comic strip that wouldn't fit in here.
