Did you all read a recent article about "Sky and Telescope" ? They
"confess" that a publication by them 53 yrs ago incorrectly explained a
Blue Moon as the second full in a month. Other "scientists" followed suit
and the myth goes on. So what is a Blue Moon? NASA still has the original
"wrong" definition on their web site-and They were there! Dan
