Random Acts of Human Arrogance

Heard about Pluto. Yeah, sure. Whatever. I predict a reversal in less than 10 years. Somebody is going to change their mind, just watch for it. I assure you, Pluto does not friggin' care what we call it. If you can live on it, it's home for someone. Who cares what gets called a planet and what doesn't? Honestly.

In the same vein? David Plotz is blogging the Bible at Slate.

*thinks* I have at least four copies of the Bible at home, various translations (including a Catholic version) and 12 versions on CD for comparison's sake.

This, ought to be good.

It's horky! I think they're downgrading it to "dwarf planet" - now, would someone please explain THAT one to me?

Obviously it's a planet full of dwarves. Hobbits and elves need not apply.
