Thanks Greg
The one I linked to brings up the same old question ..How big is a planet?
The second one, if its the size their saying , should be classed as a planet if its larger than Pluto.
10 is a better number.

I saw a link on Mike Brown's site to the larger one but skipped it, now I cant find it.

The discoveries still leave hope for more.

As a note, The Spanish team credited with the discovery of 2003 EL61 were using what looks like a 14" Celestron (I cant read Spanish), well within amateur scope parameters.
