Its possible that 1y1 denoted planet, wyw is without
atmosphere, and zyz is with atmosphere. The
medium (earth sized?) and large (gas giant?) planets
would have atmosphere, a little planet wouldn't.
We will have to wait for more information to resolve
this controversy. I do like W as a naming convention
for the planets. In reply to some of the recent postings,
I think the pP...Pp as picture interpretation is
obsolete. The following pictures could just be meant to
explain the p is radius or circle. Of course no one knows
what the lone p means. Look at Andrew Plotkin's WWW
page to see how the multiple G's make paragraphs.
