Should Pluto be renamed as a planet? What are your thoughts? [nydailynews.com]

Druvius comments on Sep 11, 2018:

I think they should have classified the planets as Inner and Outer Planets, the big eight, they really are in a class of their own. And Pluto as a Kuiper Belt Object or Kuiper Belt planet. I like this guys take on it: https://theness.com/neurologicablog/index.php/the-pluto-debate-rages-on/

phxbillcee replies on Sep 12, 2018:

@Druvius P.S. Tho I think we may sub-classify Pluto as a dwarf (Or "Little Planet", as they prefer!!!), using that as the sole reason for re-classification (plus the dubious 'clear one's orbit') was probably a mistake. After all we do distinguish between the 'rocky' & the 'gas giant' planets already.

@Druvius I may have misunderstood, even on re-reading, "I think they should have classified the planets as Inner and Outer Planets, the big eight, they really are in a class of their own. And Pluto as a Kuiper Belt Object or Kuiper Belt planet." I read it as the "Big Eight" as your inner & the Kuiper as your outer. I proposed a split in the Big Eight to Inner/Outer & then adding the Kuiper.

I totally agree :D

phxbillcee replies on Sep 12, 2018:

@Druvius Mine went more, for the Inner/Outer, anyway, on appearance/composition. Tho sharing the same plane the four inner planets differ markedly from the four outer planets, & we may have even more variety in the Kuiper Belt. My classification merely divided the eight main planets into "Inner/Outer" & then allowed for the addition of the Kuiper bodies, in whatever form or orbit they may evidence.

Even after reading your link, I think I'll stand by my idea. I can see why Pluto was 'downgraded', or reclassified, but the criteria is a bit faulty. Using some type of my sorting would allow the Kuiper bodies, whether dwarf or the potential Planet X, to grow, which they inevitably will, without affecting the "Inner/Outer" solar system unless we find another 'dwarf' Ceres.

I'm not sure what group this was 'lifted' from, but there are certain groups on this site I just don't bother to visit. I can catch all their views on FauxNews if I wish, which I usually don't! They have a right to their opinions, tho, as I have a right to mine. If you've caught any of my postings on censorship you know I vehemently oppose it except in egregious cases, of which the above doesn't approach. Even the religious can make a case if they wish, as long as they don't troll, spam or abuse. Freethought is just that. To paraphrase, "I may think you suffer from diarrhea of the mouth & constipation of the brain, but I'll defend your right to make a fool of yourself 'til your last breath!" Ok, the original is more profound, but 'free' speech is paramount!

phxbillcee replies on Sep 7, 2018:

Yeah, now that was a painful fact!

Is it acceptable in this site to call your political opponents "mentally deranged"?

Umbral comments on Sep 7, 2018:

Is this a question about site moderating? Or wanting to debate / critique / examine the comment in question? I'm a Liberal and I'm mentally deranged, so I'm confused.

phxbillcee replies on Sep 7, 2018:

@PontifexMarximus I just think it's hilarious! The old 'pot calling the kettle...' thing. Now, I'm a Progressive, so I must be certifiable & foaming at the mouth, so take it with a grain of salt!!! LOL!

The best review of Kavanaugh's record on the appellate court and of his misleading the Senate and possibly lying under oath. I didn't know this person before but now believe he is a politician with an agenda and not an independent thinking judge. As I write this I'm watching the Senate hearings ...

To just take a part of this let me remind everyone on this Labor Day that there is little or nothing Trump has done to help US labor. It simply is not going to happen. Americans with social security, overtime, holiday pay, etc. seem to take it all for granted without realizing it was a long fight ...
