Mike mentioned that he does not believe Solar Flares could affect CS either. Not sure how this supports the moon theory but Solar Flares can cause heavy ion storms on the Earth. Even Cardiac ICUs are starting to build Faraday Cages around their units to prevent the effects of Geomagnetic Ion Storms on their hear patients. If this were not a real and measurable effect I rather doubt that they would go to this expense. U of MI is reseraching this with Russian universities.
While I am not sure of the lunar effect I have heard that is similar to the effect of a Geomagnetic Storm. BTW we have been in an unprecedented three year solar peak. Check out www.spaceweather.com for daily reports on the state of our magnetic field and geomagnetic storms. Some mornings you can actually see the air scintillate and we have been seeing the Aurora in central Texas quite frequently during the past three years. The solar cycle is running very high and the storms are hitting record peaks in intensity. www.syzygyjob.com has some intersting information and forums. It is hard to find info on the ion effects that is verifiable. But the simple reports on from Space Weather tell you when to look for possible effects. It can take a day or so for a solar flare to have its effect. BTW it drives the Jet Stream. You can subscribe to a daily email list that will tell you all the parameters and warn you of developing sun spots. Some say this cycle is a 3,000 to 300,000 year peak. A triple peak solar cycle has never been recorded previously. We can only look at geological data for indicators beyond what humans have recorded. The effects of the moon on human behavior are well documented. Not sure about the effects on CS but there have been many effects on physical function, particularly as related to nerve transmission, from the ion storms caused by solar flares. If it can do that to a large person with so many insulators and such I do think it is not outside of the realm of reason to investigate the effects on CS or of the moon cycle on CS. Should be pretty easy to set up a test situation since we know when the moon is cycling. If it is not repeatable it is not good science. Still does not mean there is not an effect. Science is not perfect and can not measure some effects accurately, yet. Garnet On Thu, 2003-10-02 at 20:29, Jonathan B. Britten wrote: > As for lunar influence, the work of a Dr. H. S.
