I suspect it still has problems, but perhaps fewer complications. I’m only confident of two things here, though: 1) all bets are off come this Thursday when the final vote takes place; 2) I’m really glad it’s not my job to determine what is or is not a planet.

Come to find out (courtesy of the BA Blog) he appeared yesterday on <em>The Colbert Report</em> -- which yielded <a target="_blank" title="The Colbert Report" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-7l2G2a6js" rel="nofollow">this comedic exchange</a>. Great stuff. :) I’ve been hoping to see Neil Tyson comment on the IAU proposal.
