Hello List,
  It appears that the only reason for dropping poor
Pluto from the list of planets is an American cultural
bias in that SIZE COUNTS. Pluto, as do the rest of
the planets, orbits the Sun in a somewhat regular
manner as a planet; therefore leave its classification
alone.
  Science may change the status of Pluto; but Pluto
will still exist as it has without any concern of
Man`s (new-school-biased? Astronomer`s) scheme of
things.
  Sincerely, Pluto fan for 9.....Dirk Ross...Tokyo
