Jupiter and Saturn are gas giants, Mars has two very small moons.
If you don't know what effect our Moon has on Earth spend a
day in the Bay of Fundy or the Bristol Channel and watch the
tides. The same force that makes water rise and fall in our oceans
also acts on the lithosphere, and a jacuzzi full weighs a ton.
The total prat "Bill" is a load of absolutely useless ignorant
******** and you are just another sucker taken in by the troll.

G'day again Androcles ****wit,
For your edification, the earthtides cuased by the moon are several orders
of magnitude
less than that exerted on Io by Jupiter. Just in case you weren't aware,
jupiter is significantly
larger than the moon. But then there's no point in me telling you that -
you'd want me to present
the evidence for this "assertion". FOAD
cheers
Bill
