Plunkett's Law: In SL, it's *always* the full moon.

So it should have been werewolves instead of vampires. Check.

Does a Bear Plunkett in the woods?

Do you know why that is?

Oddly enough, in the SL solar system (SLolar SLystem?), both the sun and moon orbit our planet, rather than the planet orbiting the sun, and the sun and moon are always opposite each other, hence the moon is constantly full and there is never a solar eclipse.

See http://secondlife.com/badgeo/wakka.php?wakka=llGetSunDirection for more information on this.

I would love to just shut it off. It's a bother in some builds. How exactly can the moon reflect in closed spaces over water. Dumb planning.

The moon has been blue in my client the past couple of weeks, but it's reflection is still white. I agree with Martin. Just cancel the reflections,
