It is quite evident that our forefathers thought with wise and meaningful forethought and got it wrong. The solar system should, surely, begin and end with 'S, U and N'.
Pluto for all those years has been a pimple on the face of our planetary system. Now it has been lanced and reduced to the dwarf that it really is. Perhaps, if we massage it with sun cream for long enough, it will just disappear and we can settle down to ignoring everything else that might intrude upon our understanding of our local environment.
