At a guess ... Nate Send a noteboard - 06/05/2012 08:11:11 PM
... I would say that supermoon is the common astronomy term for an astronomical occurrence, not an astrology term nor an astrological occurrence, and jh is just trolling you.

EDIT - I've read Isaac's reply above concerning the astrological origin of the term, but it's not being used in an astrological context here, so ... ~shrug~

I can see why the news chose "supermoon" over Syzygy - 06/05/2012 07:24:15 PM 385 Views
Well it would be a 'Perigee-Syzygy', which is admittedly more of a mouthful - 06/05/2012 07:58:26 PM 418 Views
do y'all try to make everything rhyme? - 06/05/2012 08:31:46 PM 367 Views
No, but that probably would be a good idea - 06/05/2012 09:58:52 PM 266 Views

I'm sorry if my use of the astrological term bothers you. I didn't realize it came from there. - 06/05/2012 07:21:41 PM 396 Views
