[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] My joke was more along the lines of the [b]discord[/b] that is sure to erupt about whether to classify Pluto and "Xena" as planets or as planetoids. And Discordia is the Roman goddess of strife, so it'd be in keeping with the "use Roman gods and goddesses for the Sol Sytem planets except for Earth" theme that's currently going on. One of my (Trekkie) friends thinks we ought to use Vulcan, which was once proposed for an imaginery planet between the sun and Mercury in the mid- to late- 1800s. I'm not so sure using the Roman god of volcanoes for a distant, icy chunk of rock is a good use of the name. [/QB][/QUOTE]
