What is your fav. planet and why?

Unfortunately I read about it in Scientific American, and they're assholes, and charging five dollars for the story. jerks.

The wikipedia article is pretty good, but most of it is over my head. I don't know, look into it. A lot of it has to do with your taste in theories, because the rigorous mathimatical proofs are WAY beyond me, so i'm going by shapes of reality they describe...

EDIT: I discoveredthis page on the wikipedia page - lots of interesting arguments about the validity of LQG.

i kinda like mercury. its small, and veeery hot. its completely inaccurate, but an amusing picture...i always just picture myself sitting on a lawn chair on a planet that has a diameter of about 15 feet, and its all sunny and warm...even though the planet is much bigger...and thousands of degrees hotter. but hey, its my idea of paradise.

Hmm...what about when your spot on Mercury is not facing the sun, and it gets COLD! You might wanna suntan somewhere else, buddy. Venus is hotter and will stay hot.

The little 15 foot diameter planet reminds me of The Little Prince. That was a cute story.

I like Mars because it's my sign's governing planet, and is named after the God of War.

Go Io!

The thought of huge volcanoes erupting lava hundreds of feet in the air is crazy. It kinda makes me want to go kick.
