Sir T, you have a point and I'm guessing that the timing of the ultimatum to Saddam was set to give us the new moon phase to start in.

<font color=plum>Indeed it is, <font color=white>O Mistress of the Puffy White Water Vapor</font>.
That's because of a weakness found by the Serbs regarding the Stealth Bomber. Apparantly, they are much easier to "spot" when there is a full moon.
I saw a news clip the other night stating Saddam Hussein had consulted the Serbs on how to defend Baghdad against the technologically advanced weapons the U.S. will use (smart bombs, Stealth Bombers, etc). The Serbs informed Saddam that thick, black smoke would often "confuse" the laser guidance system of our smart bombs....so he has had people in Baghdad digging holes and filling them with fuel for fires (trash, wood, etc). The Serbs also informed Saddam that our Stealth Bombers were much more vulnerable under the light of a full moon.
Since it is almost garuanteed that Stealth Bombers will be used in the opening salvo of air strikes against Baghdad...it certainly makes sense to wait until just after the full moon before launching the first strike.</font>
