Yeah, I agree that we'll wait until after that "report", but not because of it, or the moon. My read is that we don't quite have everything in place. I think we're within 10 days of that, though.
Again, my read is that less moon is better for us tactically right now, but that is not of major import mehinks since Saaad-dam is not likely to be real surprised at any time now, and must be on about the highest alert footing he's able to be anyway.
