The world waits while scientists gathered in Prague debate the fate of Pluto, the ninth planet in the solar system. In a Stalinist move, Pluto may be airbrushed from the list of planets because a slightly larger object (nicknamed "Xena") was found a little further out. Pluto may be demoted to merely a Kuiper Belt object, no more important than all the other rocks and debris floating out there.
Look. The Beatles sang Revolution No. 9, not number 8. I want nine planets!
