Subject: Was the Gondwannan moon bright enough for plants to photsynthesis

I was told recently that the moon on the 22/22/99 was going to be 
especially bright because the moon was slightly closer to the earth on that 
date. I am also aware that in the geological past the moon has been 
significantly closer to the earth. It has often baffled me how plants 
survived through the 6 months of darkness in Gondwanna. Would it have been 
possible for reflected light from the moon to have been sufficiently bright 
to allow plants in ancient Gondwanna to photosynthesis during their 
extended darkness. This would give a whole new meaning to the midnight sun!
