suspicious articles
If you find any that relate at all to EvC you could bring them up for discussion maybe? One to a thread would be appropriate I think.
It is certainly easy to find junk, not just biased but junk, in the conservawiki. It's quite fun actually.

Moon Bulges
I am confused, are they actually claiming that the tidal forces are effecting the moon? Isn't it the other way around?
Tidal forces are gravitational. You can't have one body pulling on another with gravity without having the second body also pulling on the other.
As I understand it the behaviour of the moon can be calculated very accurately with newtonian mechanics - there is no mystery.
