Back to the Underworld

Pluto is no longer a planet.

Ok, so it's stuck in the same "dwarf planet" pigeonhole as Ceres. Aside from tripping up us old farts when we're asked "How many planets are there?", it's not terribly important science.

But I'm curious: what are the astrologers saying? If Pluto is no longer a planet, does its influence end or diminish? A lot of them use Ceres and other large asteroids, so this might not affect them so much. But how big does a piece of rock have to be before it affects life on earth? It will be interesting to see what kind of BS they weave.
