    I will always think of Pluto as a planet. Without it, "My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas" just doesn't work. What is she serving us now? Nothing??! Not cool, Mom. Not cool.

    @save_jinger: This is what I was most upset about as well. It was easy to downgrade poor Pluto to a dwarf planet; do you know how much work goes into creating a good mnemonic device!?

    @funnymonkey: Yes, actually! My mom teaches second grade, and this is exactly what she was worried about when Pluto got downgraded. That she would have to come up with a new mnemonic device. She went with Noodles.
