The moon only moves water around, and that’s a damned close planetary body.The Moon's possible gravitational effects on land movements is far more plausible than that of any planet. Its effects on ocean water could conceivably play at least a very minor role in plate tectonics. Pound for pound, water is very heavy stuff, and its shifting around could potentially have an (minor) impact on the seafloor around subduction zones and seafloor spreading centers.

Exactly. But this moe-Ron is saying Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Mars .... makes the earth move. What a macaca.
