   I think they should still keep Pluto on the list. Why change what works?

   Humans have a lot of clutter in their solar system – I think they realise Pluto was named as a planet too hastily. Because we now know of larger masses than Pluto in the solar system such as Sedna/2003 VB12 these would have to become planets if Pluto was to remain one.

   Shame really. I liked thinking of Sedna as The Tenth Planet.

   I can only imagine what the mood is like on Pluto today. They must be feeling very lost and dejected, rather like England after every recent world cup tournament.

   It’s Holst I feel sorry for. Imagine your most famous creation suddenly being wrong. At least Pluto is one of the lesser movements. . . I vow to thee my planet…

   i think that pluto should have been annouced a dwarf planet along time ago for it doesnt have enough mass to it and its way too small.

   alex i agree with u that Pluto should have been called a dwarf planet a long time ago because they should have been smart enough to know that before
