I can't say I have an opinion one way or the other. I don't get out of the immediate solar system much.

Can science just change it's mind? Are the facts the same or has Pluto lost weight (I know mass). What is a hard science if scientist can change something by voting.
Follow the money! How many of these scientist will make money from new textbooks.

"the scientific community" didn't rule that Pluto is not a planet. A small group, a fraction of the IAU membership, voted it into a "dwarf planet" limbo, and while some may listen to this, it's strictly a political act, and insult to the United States -- and that's all it was intended to be.
