Well, Bush did sign funding for Pluto-KBO Mission ;-)
Who cares?
How about Clyde Tombaugh family, friends and colleagues at Lowell Observatory.
How about that New York space exhibit a few years back who emitted Pluto from the planet display. A lot of kids were confused.
Sure we can trivialize, but a standard should be followed for education sakes and maybe we need to refine just what a planet is.
I know the IAU has decided to keep Pluto designated as a planet and just thought this new news justified there statement.
