(SNES) Blue Moon



Hello All,

This past Friday night at FDO, the question arose regarding the meaning of
the phrase "once in a blue Moon".  The most commonly accepted meaning of a
"blue Moon" is the second full moon in any given month.  However, the link
below appears to refute that meaning.  Interestingly, the misconception
appears to have resulted from an error in a March 1946 Sky and Telescope
article.

Clear (and blue Moon-less skies),
Steve
