Ian loves Pluto [which, until recently, he called "Bluto"], but a couple of weeks ago, he was talking about it as something less than a planet, and that took me by surprise, so I ran a little reality-check:

Me: Do you consider Pluto a planet?

Ian: Well I want to, but they're calling it a dwarf planet.
