Mike Bara is another who thinks the Moon prevents winds on Earth. In his book ‘The Choice’ he wrote “Without the Moon’s calming influence, the Earth would spin so fast that the centrifugal force would most likely flatten us all like pancakes.” When critics, including me, pointed out that he had the effect of centrifugal force exactly wrong, he tried to make amends deceptively. In his next book he wrote “As I put it in my previous book ‘The Choice’ …. Without the Moon’s calming influence,the Earth would spin so fast that the winds caused by the centrifugal force would most likely flatten us all like pancakes.”
Luckily for him, there are no vigilantes monitoring non-fiction books and penalizing authors for bare-faced lies.
