Will planetary line ups lead to less road rage?
Here is a bit of food for though for those dedicated astrolgers
<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2002/TECH/space/04/19/planets.alignment.reut/index.html" target="_blank">Planetary road rage</a> I feel it could as it is rather hard to drive while you are staring up at the sky, so they will be staying at home. I wonder if there were many case of road rage during a solar eclipse? |

Funky that people are still negatively affected by Astronomical phenomena. I guess it's just human nature to react to unexpected changes in the environment. Personally, I don't think there's anything special about the current planetary conjunction, it's just convenient and looks neat. (Disclaimer: I've a degree in Astronomy and have seen more spectacular tihngs.) If anything, it's a great excuse to exercise some amateur astronomy skills, or maybe wax romantic with a date.
