It's time for the Moon naysayers to eat Crow with Rochefort dressing.
It's out there and doing its moonlike thing on steroids.
Herbal steroids maybe.  Tea. But it's not its usual self.
To me on this clear night it looks a good half stop brighter maybe two thirds of
a stop.
And it looks a whiter bluer color. Here in Portland Oregon At 8 PM.
It looks, well more persistant!
I saw it rising over the Fremont bridge and boy did I wish I had a CAT lens in
my Glove Box to grab it with!
