What were you expecting?  It's just a chunk of rock in space.  You'd have to be a hardcore scientist or a gigantic nerd to get truly excited by a photo of Pluto.

So let's start colonizing Pluto now that we know what it looks like!! Orbits the sun every 248 years, so I guess that makes for long summers and long winters.....   ;)

I remember when it was Mickey Mouse's dog.

pluto always weirded me out. All the other animals could talk and think, except Pluto. Was he retarded? Did Mickey keep his slow friend and treat him like a pet?
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I am going to hit you for that.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Pluto was a pet, I accepted that. The rest were... uh, not.
