DearWebby's Tech Support Pits  From: Linda Re: Help Requests  Dear Webby Do you get the help requests evenly throughout the year, or does the moon have an influence? Linda  Dear Linda Definitely NOT even. Sometimes I get a dozen in one day, and other times none for a few days. The moon might have something to do with it, but so far I have never checked how the busy or dead periods coincide with the moon. Have FUN! DearWebby
