If we were starting anew, undoubtedly Pluto wouldn't be labelled a planet," Professor Iwan Williams, of the IAU, told BBC News Online. "But we have almost a 100 years of culture that says Pluto's a planet. So the IAU will set up a working group to try to ponder the imponderable."
Ponder the imponderable? If they come back with some stinky irrational rational that Pluto is a planet then science is clearly lost on our civilization. It's the simple things that give it away you know. (Like the Taliban destroying the Giant Buddhas. Hello!?).
