Ah, good old statistics!

"Do you think that 'Earth' is an official planet?"

The very question *implies* that it might not be. It's amazing how you 
can get people to answer whatever you want if you write the question the 
right way...

[And all the people *I* went to school with knew that Mars is a plannet. 
They might well have *said* it was a chocolate bar in a survey just to 
be silly though! ;-) ]
