I saw a really good show on the Science Channel on Pluto. The show discussed if pluto should really be a planet or not, and how the definition of "planet" is very undefined. They ended up talking about how there are major and minor planets, and how Pluto sits in the same astroid belt as all of these "minor" planets. It doesn't make much sense to call it a major planet if all of these other astroids/ space material are not also considered planets. Wish I could think of the name of that show now....
