I don't and do you know why? I will guarantee that Pluto doesn’t give a two shakes about what a bunch of parasites thinks of its status...

i originally felt bad - dwarf planet! but you're right ozymandiaz. Actually i was worried about how i will tell my students that pluto is not a planet - they probably all know it by now - i just need to add dwarf in front of planet in the manuals :) and i should find the right word in french.
