Bring Back Pluto

[dragonyphoenix]

Astronomers find evidence of two planets out past Neptune.

Now they'll have to bring Pluto back so we can have Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto Mickey and Goofy.

Well, there's always Eris (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eris_(dwarf_planet)), which if nothing else has the most apt name in the solar system... (Though they originally tried to name it Xena.)

"Hey guys, I found another planet."
"Wooo!"
"And it's bigger than Pluto. But still tiny. I think we have a problem. The more of these we find..."
"...Either everything's a planet, or Pluto isn't one?"
"Exactly. And people are going to argue about it for decades."
"So what do we name it?"
"Didn't the Greeks have a goddess of discord...?"

As a Robert Anton Wilson (http://rawilson.com/) fan, I'm thrilled there's a planet out there named Eris.

I know, right?

Plus, they mostly try to keep away from naming planets after deities in living religions for obvious reasons, but of course discordians more or less consider blasphemy a virtue, so I'm sure they have no complaints. :)
