Now suppose all this reaction was capable of shaking the planet. (As
with the moon, this shaking is of the whole planet not the individual

The moon out of the equation for this consideration; it leaves us with
the effect of vibration in the earth. Suppose that this vibration
consists of an harmonic that when imposed upon the next shake and the
next, a wave-train takes shape that has the effect of sound. What
would it look like?

Shows what can happen when a stream of sound is set up inside an
arena. Far from making random waves of "white noise", a pattern flows.

It is my contention that...

....such a pattern occurs within and just above the surface of the
earth and that...

the pattern changes according to the time of the phase of the moon.

Thought I'd better make that clear -obvious though the meaning is.
