If thinking that science is sometimes complex, and should not be dumbed down makes me 'petty', I am OK with that.
The article makes those who were against 'demoting' Pluto sound like a bunch of whiny little kids, as well as painting those who pushed it through sound sneaky and underhanded. Neither side looks 'good'. Still, to say that Neil Degrasse Tyson 'pissed off' children because Pluto got 'demoted' is a stretch..even for you, Sam.
