Seeing as you're so knowledgeable on the subject, what does it mean to
be born "with a blue moon in your eye" (as per the Soprano's theme tune?)

Your blue moon detector is way out od wack :)

The last one was Aug 22 2002 at 22:29z using the Astronomical Seasons method of calculation.
or Nov 20 2002 at 01:34z using the Farmer's Almanac method.

Both methods agree on the date of the next blue moon is due Aug 19 2005 at 17:53z

Sounds like your bule moon detector went off way too early. Check your system date-time :)

The idea that a blue moon was the second full moon in any given month was/is in error !
It was based on a 1946 article in Sky and Telescope magazine that had misinterpreted a page
of the 1937 Maine Farmers' Almanac. This error was corrected in a followup article in 1999.

Back to lurking :)
