I have two words for you if you want to talk about my education in derogatory sense. Do you want me to say them or can we move on?
Read your links - what a load of baloney. I'll say there was a big (I mean BIG) scramble in 2002 to explain the boat, bowel, u, Cheshire, etc. moon
when it first appeared in lattitudes where it had never been seen before. In the U.K. it became the Cheshire moon and in the U.S., frankly, not that
many people noticed. There were news stories from the Phillipines (near the equator) to tell how normal it all was. There was a bunch of junk about
the smiley face moon. All that is wonderful - what happened? Then the orbit of the moon became chaotic and that's where it is now. This wasn't
seen before and a snow job on the internet doesn't make it common or referanceable. Just because we coin a name and stick stories on wiki etc. about
folklore and other bunk doesn't mean anything. Read the links I gave. If you're seeing the crescent moon like a 'U' - guess what? You're On
The Equator!!!. But wait - not anymore because it's been seen like this as far north as the U.K. and Washington state in the U.S.
I have to laugh my as- off at your links due to the fact they are atrtist animations and even the sites that the links take you too admit they are
created by starchild graphics. I also want to add that the site pages the links represent were created and modified recently and the oldest reference
is from 2002? We waited till 2002 to address this? Why is that?? What a joke..
Finally, are you dis-info artists telling me that the moon can rise in Las vegas Nv with the crescent Centered To The Right side and by the time it
sets , it has rotated 90 degrees.. ???? Thats what it is doing for the past 3 days in Los Angeles and Las Vegas Nv. and furthermore, The boat moon
comes several times a month here almost every other month of the year!!! I will post pics taken by my camera not animations!!!!!!
