This is really one of those "why the fuck does it matter?" cases to me. Pluto still orbits the sun and is still orbited by Charon (IIRC). It's still a frozen chunk of rock. What's changed? Just a few words and nothing more.

I dunno, maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like there's so many more useful things they could be doing...

plenty of things will change.... like science books, that'll say there's 8 planets in our solar system, instead of 9. then there'er those scale models and whatnot. paintings maybe at the observatary or w/e. a new generation of people will only have to memorize 8 planets in elementary school. just because it'll have no real impact in your life, doesnt mean it wont have impact elsewhere.

I believe you misinterpreted me. I know what changes were forced by this pointlessness. What I'm wondering is what changed to make people give enough of a fuck to actually recategorize Pluto. Seriously, every single one of these chunks of rock is still largely similar to how it was last year, the year before that, and the year before that. I'm just having a hard time figuring out why they bothered.

That makes some more sense, yes.. still, I'm not sure I see why they couldn't just make an exception for Pluto since we've all gotten used to there being nine planets, but I suppose they were focused more on accuracy than anything else...

meh, maybe it'll make sense when I have more than three hours of sleep. I'll just stay out until then.
