I can send you last year's complete data (I don't think I ever did), and this year's data is coming along really nicely. Integrating a lot of curriculum into the project, more than I did last year. I'll see if I can get hold of a copy of Science Scope; I've heard of it several times. Thanks for the comment and I'll be contacting you pretty soon! ~Alex.A.

But it's true that along with a certain lifestyle and degree of power, deadly confirmation biases arise that can really stifle progress toward a more equitable society. Thanks for the comment.A.

But this definitely paints a clear picture as to why it would be silly to keep calling it a planet just because we had for so many years before. My favorite dwarf planet name is easily Makemake. It sounds like an astronomer let their child name it! That last graphic is mind boggling!
