Each object is a lump of ice and rock -- roughly the size of Philadelphia An insteresting standard of comparison, Philadelphia. I wonder how they came up with that choice? How many really know the physical size of Philadelphia? Phil |

inscribed in blood upon a parchment: It this something we need to blame on George W. Bush?? Give it 24 hours and IndyMedia and the Democratic Underground will be blaming Bush and the "Zionazis" for the absence of proper planet Xs in the Kuiper Belt and that what Kuiper Belt objects there are actually belong to the Palestinians.
