Gone.

How mysterious.

You've been a most excellent username. Albeit one that no one could ever pronounce correctly.

The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel. ~ Piet Mondrian

I cannot expect even my own art to provide all the answers - only to hope it keeps asking all the right questions. ~ Grace Hartigan

"Please forward your inane complaining to"

Well, I've been told I am inane in of myself many, MANY times, but I hope what I say does not come off as complaining.

Pluto indeed, does NOT fit the current scientific definition of full fledged planet.

But at the same time, that is, believe it or not, is not the point.

The point is a matter of culture. Pluto being a planet is a part of our culture. "The last tiny way station" between our solar system and the inky blackness of space and god of the dead."

Pluto does NOT fit the text book definition of a planet, but I do feel that, in my ignorant and unscientific gut, that something about the text book definition doesn't -feel- right.

But again, as said, this isn't about the text book meaning one way or the other (though people would jump for job if the TBD did match up), it's about the place Pluto has found in our CULTURE, and to remove it's station as a planet, feels dishonorable to the distant piece of space rock.

If this happened in 2000 years when Pluto is destine to be a tourist trap, the handful of locals would be enraged at their tiny lump of space rock being declared not a planet.

I'll assume that is a mature response.
:iconzoaerven:
I'm not going to bother giving a mature response if all I'm getting to work with is opinionated arguments with incorrect supporting facts. 8D

I don't care about anyone's feelings on the matter. With the advances of science and the discovery of all the crap floating around past Pluto, the line had to be drawn somewhere. It's obvious that Pluto falls short, it isn't even the largest of the dwarf planets.

You get awesome comments.
:iconalexwarlorn:
Then you missed the point of what I said. And I am sorry for that.

It is Satan's work. Could you please hide it?
