This was beaten to death also, and just a few months ago also.  The
conclusion after weeks of your attempts to confuse, David, was that the
magnitude system should be the same as used to view Pluto.  This is NOT
Absolute Magnitude (from 10 parsecs away), but is Apparent Magnitude, I
gather.  There was some discussion that yet another magnitude system
could be used, Apparent Heliocentric.  My question to you'all is whether
an object 9 Sun-Pluto distances away would be considered within the
solar system.  Give me any answer and I'll plug the technical term for
the magnitude system into the VIEWING spec's periodically posted and
hopefully we won't have this discussion again.  Unless David forgets.
