Selenites (was Re: equinox)

I once begun a story about a human, born on the moon, who first came down to
Earth, and who he perceive some changes: gravity, atmosphere
(non-artificial), sky, polution, light... it wasn't very long for decribing
seasons and weather...

He was suposelly a second generation Selenite (parents born on Earth,
probably USA) and would speak English and Spanish.

He would probably been using Earth conventions for naming the year, and
would've live in an artificial enviroment with artifitial atmosphere,
artificial days and nights.  But he would know about a natural dark/light
period of one month and Earth phases.  Earth rotation would've been
noticeable...

Would be interesting some one hundred years from then when a Selenite
culture would've florish outside the Earth concepts... with 24 hour
artificial days, black skyes when sun lightning, an static Blue Earth (would
be usefull for referencing when out for a walk or a ride) with phases...
