Yup, I've seen the scientific method work. In fact, I've personally experienced how hard it can be to get some scientists to follow it rigorously! Then there's the politics and economics that come into play long before you need consider anything so esoteric as "psychic" or paranormal influence by the observer. That said, it still works better than mumbo-jumbo and magic in the hands of people without extraordinary talent. And the crucial aspect for us to remember in this whole discussion of Lunar influences, etc., is that THEY REALLY DON'T MATTER MUCH! Just as all the other wild fluctuations in concentration and particle size and ionic fraction in our uncontrolled processes don't render our CS ineffective, Lunar or other esoteric influences won't either. It's fun to contemplate all this other stuff, but don't forget that the simpler CS generating methods still work plenty well enough. I also ask that folks not strain the credulity of the newcomers by *too* much discussion of this stuff, since it really is not essential to their success learning to make and/or use CS and can cause them to dismiss us and CS as a bunch of idiocy. I'm a sympathetic skeptic, if there is such a thing. I *want* a lot of this stuff to be true, but I don't believe it until I can see proof and evidence of reproduceable results. I am, however, a lot less willing to dismiss things out of hand as I used to be! There's just too much that can't be explained.
