who doesn't understand all the bitching about Mercury being
retrograde, but sees it in a few friends' blogs, especially in the

The Bad Astronomy blog <<http://www.badastronomy.com/bablog>> yesterday
and today has several entries about the probe currently on the way to
Mercury, but doesn't use the word "retrograde" once . . .

Mercury isn't retrograde now (if I'm to believe the people who were
aware of it and complaining of its effects).
People blame communication issues on Mercury being retrograde. I never
notice that they're greater or less at any given time except in ways
that could be easily explained by factors other than our perception of
some planet or another.
Now, phases of the moon might be a different matter altogether. I'd buy
what phase the moon was in correlating to breakdown in communication for
some people.
