" -------------------- End Original Message -------------------- This is rather off the subject of xenharmonics I realize, but gosh, there no dirth of possible rational explantions there. One is that it's easier to go about various forms of crime when night is brigher. Another is that there is mythology about full moons that may make people more prone to want to do "naughty" things.
