A healthy debate

So, on the one hand, we have this. Pluto, apparently, is no longer considered a planet. This, according to top research scientists, as reported by CNN.

Much-maligned Pluto doesn’t make the grade under the new rules for a planet: “a celestial body that is in orbit around the sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body forces so that it assumes a … nearly round shape, and has cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.”

On the other hand, we have this. A song by one of my favorite bands, the absolutely-better-than-G-Love-and-Special-Sauce whiteboy rap/funk outfit, 2 Skinnee J’s, entitled “Pluto”.

Who do you represent?
I represent the smallest planet
A tourney in this journey
versus those who tried to ban it.
If you don’t agree
go see interplanet Janet Cause
the sun is star like
Pluto
is planet.

Which side are you on?
