http://www.nasawatch.com/archives/2006/08/this_is_making.html#more Union of Plutonic States Contests Earthlings' Demotion of its Status. No Retaliation Planned, But Planned Aid May Be Delayed FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - FRIGEON, August 24, 2006/Plutonic News via Deep Space Net/ -- /The High Council of the Union of Plutonic States notes with the greatest disappointment that the inhabitants of the third rock from the Sun, otherwise known as Earth, have unilaterally declared that Pluto is no longer a planet. "It is very odd that a group of university professors a billion klurchniks from here would presume to change the status of our home planet" said High Council General Convener Blanpik Vogonj. "Nothing is any different here, in spite of their unfortunate action." Other members of the High Council were less diplomatic in their comments. "For heaven's sake, they don't even know what we look like," barked Council Under-Minion Tork Uwapht. "The most they've seen of us is a smudge from their Rubble [sic] Space Telescope. They haven't the foggiest idea what this place is like." Large crowds of demonstrators were reported in several cities. The perseverance and dedication of the people was evident, given that with the atmosphere beginning to freeze, breathing outdoors can be painful. Demands for retaliation could be heard in some quarters, but most people expressed disappointment and surprise at the Earthlings' misunderstanding or reality. Convener Vogonj was quick to assure people that there would be no offensive against Earth. "This is a time for pity and understanding, not anger." When pressed about potential future aid for Earth, though, the Convener was less serene. "It's well-known that Earth is experiencing a severe global warming phenomenon that has the capability to do great harm to what is considered life on that planet. While Earth should solve this problem on its own, their leadership seems to have a hard time recognizing it, and by the time they do, it will probably be too late" noted his Generality. Taking a sterner tone, he continued, "We had been considering offering them an interplanetary heat-pump system that would solve their warming problem, as well as give us a slightly milder winter. That doesn't seem workable now, because we're no longer a planet in their opinion. It will be said to see them gradually heat up and drown, but that's their choice." Some High Councilors were less disturbed by the news, while others were almost elated. Minion Toxbo Frmxi released a statement applauding the decision. "All Plutonians should be relieved to hear that Earthlings don't think of us as a planet. Just look at what they've done to the other planets: Mercury and Venus have been spied upon; Jupiter and Saturn have had orbiting space machines taking photographs of everything, while Uranus and Neptune were nearly impacted by something whizzing past, cameras clicking the whole time. And Mars—it has been landed upon, penetrated, driven over, and even now has a swarm of satellites flying around it. They are as thick as mosquitoes in summertime, whatever summer is. We are fortunate to be saved from this fate."

Anyway from http://www.nasawatch.com (check out the disclaimer at the top) The IAU claims to have 8,857 members worldwide. But when it comes to making important decisions - such as deciding what a planet is (or is not) only a very small fraction of that membership was allowed to participate. Only 428 members (less than 5% of IAU's global membership) were allowed to vote. You had to be in the meeting room in Prague yesterday in order to be eligible to vote. The remaining 95% of the IAU's membership had no say in this decision. According to individuals familiar with the vote on planet definition, the vote in Prague was more or less split on the Pluto issue. A backlash is reportedly brewing among the ISU membership. Stay tuned.

To repeat My football anaolgy What if your local football team was relegated to the conference with no hope of getting back to the prem where they belong? Not fair is it? this is the intergalactic equilivent.

You know what they say - "More the Merrier" Pluto has been a planet for over 70 years so why change it now?

Nice one!

The man who built a house on the sand. Do we sit there and laugh? or help him to keep his home? America has done lots of interfering throughout history. Only with the benefit of hindsight do we know they were wrong on occasions.

No he shouldnt, he just ran into him at a bad angle. Granted it was more NFL than football just one of those things.

You really dont believe the holocaust happened? Why?

A good source is one that gives both sides of the argument so the reader can makeup their own minds. Prisonplanet is all anti america, uk, Israel. Its run by a bloke who uses the site to promote his books.

America wasnt fighting Terrorism when 9/11 happened. The Uk Wasnt fighting Terrorism when the IRA Started. And besides no-one messes with the Swiss. Even Hitler didnt.

Depends where i'm going Long journey - bout 2-3 hours At home - One or two tracks at a time going to work- about half an hour

Theres a mine in Papua New Guinea that had a road similar to that - I think it could be. Althou i could swear it was narrower or had bigger trucks on it. It was an open cast mine and they had MASSIVE trucks that could only get there one way..
