Along Jefferson Drive, on the south side of the National Mall in
Washington DC, there is a series of plaques describing the planets, in relative distance from one another. Today's Washington Post has an article about a spontaneous memorial that has sprung up around the Pluto plaque. People are leaving notes, sympathy cards, and even flowers, expressing their regret at Pluto's expulsion from the Planetary Club.: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...090101793.html You have to register (for free) to read it.
