The little tongue twisted we used to chant as a reference was:
Who holds whom for whom?
For whom does who hold what?

I hear you, Rocky.
I, however, will NEVER give in to the PC crowd. I will go right on using "he" when it is appropriate, and I will teach my children to use the proper wording, too. Anyone who complains can stick it.

Yes, they are in order. Usually. I believe that Uranus and Pluto occasionally switch orbits, but I wouldn't bet my last nickel on that.
I'm sure some astronomy whiz here on FR will be able to tell you for sure.

Remember your trigonometry? I don't. (LOL) Actually, just about the ONLY thing I remember from trig is Chief SohCahToa.
SOH = Sine = Opposite/Hypotenuse
CAH = Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
TOA = Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent

Whence he comes, thence he goes, hence he comes again.
Means: From where he comes, from then he goes and he will come again.

That's Neptune & Pluto... in fact, Pluto only within the last few years crossed back and once again became the more distant planet.

Use one/one's to keep it singular. I don't care if 'he' is sexist: I still use the masculine whenever I desire. They'll get over it. No other language has tried to eliminate the feminine/masculine.
