Beware Of The Moon!
Bush Tucker Man:
Sussex Police are putting extra officers on the streets during the full-moon

I'm surprised to see that it states that there's never been a medically proven link between the Moon & unbalanced behaviour!
After all, where does the Beeb think that the word 'Lunacy' come from (ie; Lunar)
Plus, if the Moon can influence the bodies of water on this world & create the tides, why can't it affect the blood within the human Brain? (or the surrounding Cerebrospinal fluid)
We always joke at work that we'll get more 'Numptys' through the doors (be they walking/staggering, in Ambulances, or handcuffed to a Bobbie) during that phase of the Moon.

Some friends of mine used to run residential care homes, and they reckoned the full moon made a difference to the mental state of the inmates. Can't say we've noticed anything in school. The kids are quite strongly affected by wind and rain though.
The effect of the microgravity of the moon on body fluids will be drowned out by other factors in any constantly moving body. A bit like tides don't affect rivers. I'd guess if there is a link it's to do with the body's natural timing cycles and probably connected to hormone production.
