34. I learned that there was only one planet when I went to school.
But then again, I went to a right wing fundy school growing up. They taught us that earth was all their was and that those twinkling things in the sky were the lights in God's house. We were told not to look, lest we be called, "Peeping Toms." I was told to shut up and never question the Lord when I pointed out that my name wasn't Tom.

It wasn't until later when I entered public school that I discovered there was a cosmos outside my own anus. I sure am glad I finally learned that too. It was gettin' smelly with my head up there all the time like that.

I would be willing to bet that there are tons more planets that we haven't found yet. We know nothing more than what our silly, inadequate attempts at space travel have allowed us to learn. And some people still refuse to believe that there is more than one planet. :eyes:
