  An eclipse (casting a shadow, or obscuring of light) does not make the sun and moon gravitational effects any more stronger.
  A simple Tide tool would show that.   WxTide32, for example.
  Maybe it is the untidal (tides but greater effect of spring floods and summer releases) "Inland Toronto Globe and Mail"'s fault.
  
  And the lack of scientifically alert questioning Copy-Editors at the Globe doesn't help.
  Please send the reporters and remaining editor back to school over the next months for intense subject refreshers, away from the stale Globian air.
  
  This cursed Washington State fish farm shows why all fish-farms should be land-based.
