Gotta love this one. This except is lifted directly from the Wall Street Journal's Evening Wrap that is sent out by email (emphasis added):
"Meanwhile, astrologists discovered a small planet circling a red-dwarf star 28,000 light years away from Earth, the smallest known planet not circling a dying neutron star. The discovery raises hopes of finding more Earth-like planets in the galaxy. And British scientists discovered the world's smallest known fish in an Indonesian peat swamp. A member of the carp family, the Paedocypris progenetica grows to just 7.9 millimeters (0.31 inches), a scale shorter than the 8 millimeters of the Indo-Pacific goby, the previous record-holder. "
I always knew that paper drew it's information from otherworldly sources, but I always thought that only happened on the editorial page.
The article was corrected on the web site. Bummer.

Are you saying that astrologists can't make scientific discoveries? Plus, anyone can make a mistake -- someone like you who can right well should know that.
