LOL, Mademoiselle. That last line is great. Hope it was intentional.
"Make Uranus a moon."  Yeah, I know quite a few guys (and a few gals) that can identify with that line.

Yeah, mysteria, it is a good line. Robin Williams said it as Mork on the
old sitcom Mork and Mindy.

I disagree ...

Call me 'old-fashioned', but I don't think planetary status should be bestowed on just any ol' floating clump of dirt. In fact, were it up to me, I would downgrade Mercury (to an asteroid), too. Plus, make Uranus a moon.

I don't think I'm alone when I say I'd like to see
more and more planets
fall under the ruthless domination of our solar system.

Its a planet. They are juss looking for an excuse to convene on the scene
and party.  Scientists seem insecure in a way.  Always eventing stuff like oh I don't know, global warming, to justify their positions and feel they are valid in the world...I dunno though. This is just a thought that occured to me this sec.  What do you think?  BTW  "Pluto May Be a "Mickey Mouse" Kind Of Planet..."<<<<that's good!
