The Bus Schedule Lied To Me
"Express Service Schedule 8:00 am - 10:15 am every 15 minutes" my eye! More like "Express Shuttle comes around 15 minutes past the hour, then waits around another 15 minutes to pick up the 9:30 crowd while they're at it!"
On a similar note of things that have gone wrong today, I somehow missed the fact that I had an Astronomy 162 midterm today.
I mean, it's Astronomy 162, which means it's literally only a slight step past "this is the solar system, and we have nine planets...", but even so, it was a little tense there.
On an interesting side note, though, that nine planets thing is now just a tad outdated.

Ah. . . . I am glad you aren't talking about the CABS buses, on which I rely. I've lost track of the number of planets or candidate planets. What interests me is the fact that this debate reminds us that the category "planet" is a linguistic and analytical construction. How many we have depends on how you define them. Like everything else.
