Yes!

Please call them Dwarf Planets!

Since almost every prediction and assumption
about the objects in the Kuiper Belt for the last
twenty years has proven to be diametrically
in error, this will virtually guarantee that within
a decade we'll discover a "dwarf planet" in the
Kuiper Belt with a diameter in excess of 13,000
kilometers! (Bigger than the Earth.)
