Pluto Demoted to "Dwarf Planet"

Being an immunology guy and not much of a space man, I've hesitated to post on Pluto today. It is, after all, sort of an important day for adults, marked for ever-more as the day we had our favorite planet taken away from us, and I certainly wouldn't want to give it less attention than it deserves.

But other than just giving it a golly gee - no more Pluto, what else could an immunology guy say about Pluto that would mean anything to anyone?

But then I stumbled upon "Cap'n Bob and the Damsel," and Cap'n Bob is a senior aerospace engineer for a well-known defense contractor. Hell, if he can't tell us about Pluto, who the hell can?

So, I whole-heartedly recommend that you go check out "Pluto Demoted to 'Dwarf Planet," and say hi to Bob.
