The Plutonian system with the possible names for S/2005 P1 & S/2005 P2. — HurricaneDevon @ 18:22, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Devon,
- Got the pronunciation of Cerberus wrong there. The OED has (ˈsɜːbərəs), and Webster's has \'sər-b(ə-)rəs\ --that is, like the OED but with ars, or two syllables as "surbrəs". — User:Kwamikagami
