It was always busier - the moon affects electrical equipment.

Thanks spiritalk, that's very interesting.
Thinking about this I realised that I have a file somewhere about someone who did some research on the full moon causing sleepwalking in some people. If I can find it, I'll post it on the thread.

It was Karl von Reichenbach who discovered, after thousands of experiments, that sleepwalking was due to the influence of the moon

According to Wiki, 18% of the world's population is prone to sleepwalking - quite a serious problem. Other symptoms: sudden muscle cramps, crying and trembling
The link above is long but very interesting and those who have problems with this malady may find it helpful. As usual, the moon connection makes it out-of-bounds for doctors and shrinks.

The moon has indicated random energies that affect anything from the tides to human affairs. On the night of a full moon any ER would tell you there are more patients than any other night.

About the ER-Luna connection, there was an article about astrological "experiements"...let me find it...

Okay. This article claims that isn't the lumination of Luna itself, but her placement in her own cycle, the tenth and twenty-fifth day respectively, which is her apogee and perigee (farthest and closest position from the Earth).

Quote:

The researchers found interesting ways to turn findings into "negative results." They found that the two peak crisis-call days of the lunar cycle were the 10th and 25th days, but that finding was considered "inconsistent with beliefs in folklore that more calls occur around the full moon." The fact that the peak number of calls occurred when the moon was near apogee was considered "contrary to theories of those who contend that the moon's tidal pull influences human behavior."

Hi Sei no senshi
Excuse me if I missed something, but I see no connection between this and my link? From my own reading, Reichenbach was in no way trying to prove or disprove any prior results, but just trying to find an answer to the problem of sleepwalking. His studies seem to show that it's the unique radiation emitted by moonlight that causes the problem as opposed to positive emanations from the sun.
I would like to see the link that you quote though.

That's because it didn't have anything to do with sleepwalking. I said "ER-Luna connection", that's a reference to spirittalk's post.
