For example, researchers Ivan Kelly, James Rotton, and Roger Culver, in their study "The Moon was Full and Nothing Happened" (published in the book "The Hundredth Monkey and Other Paradigms of the Paranormal," 1991) examined more than 100 studies of alleged lunar effects and found no significant correlation between phases of the moon and disasters, homicide rates, etc. Furthermore, there is no known mechanism by which the moon would somehow influence a person's mind to make him more dangerous—except of course for his own expectations.

Weird how people still believe in these ancient ridiculous myths which have been proven false over and over again.


It is amazing what a competitive, insensitive, western way of life will do the people and the scientific community at large. But the other studies are still out there.  Wink
