A bit more sense
is coming out of the IAU:
Positing new planets divides astronomers.
I do think Pluto should be left alone (though I'm glad to see the term "pluton" is, apparently, history). It's been a planet for 76 years - leave it that way.
Not quite sure what to make of the "dwarfs", but I will have the soundtrack to Snow White running through my head for the rest of the day.
Does the term "orbital dominance" strike anyone else as a bit... kinky?

Funny! Hat tip to AstroCocktail for pointing this article out.

Yes. That does sound kinky. We'll have to talk about that. Can I be orbitally dominant with you? ;)
Ah my dearest Trapped. You are as deeply warped as I am.
I consider that one of the nicest compliments I've received this year!
