Since this seems to be a branch of the larger thread I'm going to restate these questions.

Ganymede, which is roughly the size of Mercury, has a strong magnetic field, indicating it is still hot.
How bout saturn?
Saturn's rings are not stable. They are drifting away from Saturn. If Saturn is billions of years old, why does it still have rings?
Comets?
Comets are constantly losing matter. They are losing and losing and never gaining. "Short Period Comets" (like Haley's comet), which have predictable orbits, should deteriorate to nothing within 10,000 years. Why are there still Short Period Comets?
