Yeah, but one of the problems is that Pluto is actually about as big as the moons of some of the other planets, meaning it shouldn't really be called a planet in the first place. Also, Pluto's moon is over half the size of Pluto itself... the current definitions are pretty vague, and it just gets worse when new objects are found with sizes that balance in the grey area that defines what they are called.

There's a hole in the sky through which things can fly.
