Default Pluto demoted

Just heard about the news about Pluto, it's been demoted fom Planet, to minor Planet. Our solar system not only has 8 Planets! I suppose it's not that important, it's only a name, but it's kinda sad. I still think it would have been better if they had gone for the Pluto/Charon binary planet idea. A binary system right in our own neighbourhood!

Hey, I'd rather have eight planets than twelve (or rather about fifteen when the whitecoats pin down the sizes and orbits of some of the asteroids).

Anyone in favor of the name Xena for our favorite tenth planet candidate?

Just Baked Us Nothing seemed to be the winner in the Fark thread.
