Supermoon

March 19th 2011 is a supermoon, or a lunar perigree. The moon being so close to the earth is thought to bring many natural disasters. And the day after it was announced, Japan experienced an apocalyptic 8.9 earthquake. Hawaii had floods and California was in danger.
   But a lot of sources are saying that the supermoon isn't causing these problems.

 Did you know that on full moons that:
  • there is a burst in babies being born reported by nurses and doctors
  • people get moody and act weird
  • police report that crime rates rocket
  • more suicides
  • more epileptic seizures
I think it has something to do with the pressure of gravity.
Anyways. I'm really really really scared of what could happen. If you know me, you know my paranoia. What do you think about the supermoon?

Hmm... not sure what's going to happen but I don't think the world is going to end. That's really interesting about the whole full moon thing. I guess we'll see what's going to happen. :/

O_O This totally reminds me of Susan Beth Pffer's book "Life As We Knew It".

Hope for the best. Think positive and have faith.

tidal forces. 2GM1M2/R^3. so, R is the smallest it'll ever get.
