But it just doesn't matter. So why do it?
I think it does matter, new discoveries have made our traditional picture of the solar system inadequate. Having a definition for 'planet' will help to create a new picture that is in line what we now know.

Dude, he spent a lot of time in both AZ and NM (Lowell above Flagstaff was where he did his Pluto observations and he was at NMSU for nearly 45 years.) Of course he had a string tie!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

How does the random definition create a new picture of what we already know? It's not a new discovery. They're just saying, "Red apples are fruit, and green apples are now zerbotifoozits."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I know who he is. Arizona doesn't have that much going on. You do learn "discovered Pluto" at some point in ten years of pre-college education.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
First they take away the brontosaurus. Now it's Pluto. What next? Are they going to repeal gravity? The scientists must be stopped!
This is totally my deal with this. I believe that The Scientists have their reasons, but all I know is the popular names for things and I LIKE THEM.
I am having crazy deja vu right now, FYI.

I didn't mean it as a slam, just a goofy explanation. I honestly can't gauge how much is taught about him outside "discovered Pluto" because my exposure was from a completely different angle. My childhood was pretty much immersed in astronomy.

How does the random definition create a new picture of what we already know?
The Kuiper belt is the new discovery along and some of these are just as big and made of the same stuff (ice) as Pluto. Right now there is no standard definition of Planet, so a definition is being decided so that the new objects can be classified. Unless you decide that planet has no meaning other than 'the 9 objects that we've always called planets', then the picture is going to change no matter what. The discussion is really whether 'planet' is going to mean a few large objects, or dozens or hundreds of small ones.
