Robin, Do you have a link for this? I proposed something similar at MIT about 40 years ago. I looked at the direct relationships and many resonances but could not find one. I did not have time (could not rationalize taking the time) to look at the accelerations (as in tidal influences). It certainly looked as if there should be some correlations.
