P.S.
Re the famous cartoon that Edgar brought with regard to the pun about the importance of the moon = it actually illustrates another pun:
Two wise men of Chelm observed that there are moonlit nights in Chelm, that lacked streetlights at that time, as well as moonless nights. They thought a lot and discovered the reflection of the moon in a water filled barrel, The Eureka thought struck both at the same time, and they speedily put the lid on the barrel to trap the moon for the moonless nights.
