Time Lapse of Lunar Eclipse

MufasaZX writes "Start with a relatively rare occurrence, the complete lunar eclipse from last Wednesday. Next add the amazingly rare, a perfectly clear fog free night in San Francisco, as viewed from the cliffs overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. Then I set up my trusty Sony MiniDV camcorder and wide angle lens on a tripod and proceeded to freeze my butt off for 2 hours. Dump the video into Premier, accelerate it 200x to just 37 seconds, and the resulting video is IMHO simply stunning. Until my web server gets crushed you can download it here, but after that please use your Gnutella client of choice and search for LunarEclipse-10-2004.wmv."

Why does this exact post get put up every time anything involving a torrent is mentioned? If the poser wasn't AC I'd presume t'was karma whoring, is it in fact some kind of subtle troll joke? Shouldn't stuff like this be blocked along with "frist p0st"

Incredible! You got modded Informative, Insightful, and Interesting for that.

Here is what happened to the Mods who modded you:

Informative: actually beleived you, and now think the moon is really a giant man-made light spot to help spy satellites watch their every move.

Interseting: will raise this as a conversation topic in the next party they go to.

Insightful: suddenly got new perspective on a lot of things in the world. Rethought their life after understanding this profound point of view.

I really pity these guys :)

And also, to demonstrate the how common bad moderating is, see this:

Moderators! You must mod this informative!

There, now let me sit back and laugh. :)

Yup, this is insightful in the sense that Slashdot's moderators though that this was insighful...instead of funny

Really gives me an insight into Slashdot's moderating system!!!

Now if only I get to meta-moderate this...

Hey, I saw Poltergeist and I thought that you weren't supposed to go into the light.
