Siri is really Susan!

I just read an article about voice actress Susan Bennett, who is the voice of Siri, the cell phone helper.

But my first thought was Susan from the Planet Pluto Early Warning System, worming her way into our cell phones to tell us what to do in her sultry voice.

If they ever did a new BotP that included Susan, what would they call that station now that Pluto is no longer considered a planet? The Planet Formerly Known as Pluto Early Warning Station?

And the real Susan (from the former planet known as Pluto) was actually Sandy Frank's secretary, also called Susan!

Unless this is an urban myth...hmmm...

ETA: Now that I think of it, I'm sure we had the discussion about Sandy Frank's secretary before. Sorry if you've heard this again!

Well, Pluto is now classified as a dwarf planet....though I'm sure there's somebody insisting they use the term "little person"....

So -- I guess it would be the Little Person Planet Pluto Early Warning Station!

I don't remember that conversation, DT. Must have missed it.

Have school text books been changed yet to say that? If not, there's still time for them to change their minds.
