There are so many smutty innuendos springing to mind that I don't know where to begin. Therefore I wont.

I wish I could only say the same for myself...

Bad Seed, this is the second post I've read of yours referring to your...mmm...less than five inch rising. Not planning on getting many dates here, are you?

If I saw six inches rising on a full moon, I would howl.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but I find it hard to believe that the amount of light reflecting off the surface of the moon could have such an affect on the earth.

Perhaps they were talking about the moon's Apogee (When it is farthest away) and Perigee (When it is closest). During the Perigee the moon's tidal forces are be greater and could cause such an affect.

Damn, I have a recording of my dog (Siberian husky) howling at the moon, I wanted to play it when this thread opened, but I cannot seem to make it work.. Oh well... !!!!

--- Imagine hearing a SIberian Husky (Sounds just like a wolf) Howling at the moon here!!!

Elsewhere,

You make an interesting point - a full moon tends to increase the size of tides due to the moon being on one side of the earth and the sun on the other. However, this is less likely to affect the actual land mass, because my guess is that it would only be effectively the moon exerting the gravitational force, which it always does. Perhaps www.badastronomy.com has an answer?

So will it work if you just leave the light on when there's no full moon out??

lol@expat - Benny Hill! LMAO
