Mooning - Geographic distribution

The custom of mooning to show disrespect may be limited North America and some countries of Europe, where it is generally considered a rude and insulting act (but much less offensive than flashing). It is often performed as a form of protest. Also, the Maori of New Zealand moon as a sign of disrespect. Mooning is considered offensive because the buttocks are considered taboo, and mooning therefore exposes the victim to the taboo.

The Liberty Bell is a variation of mooning that may be local to Pennsylvania. It combines the traditional moon with dangling male genitalia and a side-to-side rocking motion to emulate the ringing of a bell. The butt-crack represents the crack in Philadelphia's Liberty Bell. When the buttocks are pressed against glass one gets the so-called pressed fruit bowl, where the banana and peaches would be the male genitalia.

Anyone with clear skies will be able to easily identify the moon tonight and get a spectacular view of its features, says Space.com.

The full moon tonight will be 2010's biggest and brightest since the moon is closer in orbit than usual at this time of year.

How much bigger and brighter? Spaceweather.com reports it will be 14 percent wider and 30 percent brighter than normal.

While full moons can be breathtaking to sky-gazers, they can be irritating to astronomers. The full moon is the No. 1 cause of natural light pollution, and its bright lighting — especially tonight — will dim stars and nebulae, making them quite difficult to see.

Do ya think? {#Lol}

But cool info. We'll check it out. . . .
