So other than being on a boat, you have no preference.

Teacher of?

He says "Hey, what's this smell like! What's this smell like! What about this! And this! Need to relieve myself... ahhh. What's that smell like?"

Not sure what there is to glean from that.

I think The Big Flush is more desriptive of the end of the universe....

I believe Solar Planet is a tanning salon. Perhaps it's powered buy a solar panel?

I was under the impression that it was the earth moving below the pendulum. Interesting.

That would explain where many of my posts have gone.......

"Many toilets are designed to have the water enter the toilet bowl through a series of small holes under the porcelain seat rim. These holes are angled slightly, causing the water in the bowl to swirl around. This swirling action, combined with the speed of the entering water, causes the contents of the bowl to quickly and thoroughly exit from the base of the bowl, into the waste pipes, and, hopefully, out of your life forever. "

Jeannie, I like you... I really do. But I wasn't even referring to you on my post. I was referring to his comment that he was off to flush his toilet and stating that most toilets are designed to spin. I don't know which way... I'll be sure to check mine when I get home. But most toilets angle their jets to more effectively clean. So whether these toilets spin clockwise or counterclockwise wouldn't be relevant. I wasn't speaking to the sink or a standing pool of water. Check your toilet. It likely spins because it was designed to spin.

Pretty sure I read fine... he wrote that he was off to flush his toilet.

Trust me Dan. Today wasn't the day.

Well toilets are generally designed to spin in a specific direction. The jets are pointed to make the water spin to more effectively clean and dispose of..... you get the picture.

Well, I don't have much in the way to test with at the moment. But here's another article addressing it.

Everything I have read indicates that the state of the water and the shape of the sink would have far more influence than the coriolis effect, which makes perfect sense to me.

However I have yet to hear from anyone that has seen their sink drain clockwise in the northern hemisphere.

Not what I was taught in physics.

Obviously this isn't necessarily a definitive source, but at least it's from Cornell, lol.

The coriolis effect isn't significant enough to affect water going down the drain. Other factors have significantly more influence. The water in a drain can spiral just as easily to the left as to the right. The pressures and resistances are not truly uniform and therefore a whirlpool is created during the draining process, in the direction of least resistance.

Hurricances, however, always rotate in the same direction... or rather all above the equator rotate in one direction and all below the equator rotate the other. The side closest to the equator will be rotating toward the east, the direction of the earth's rotation. They are large enough to be more heavily influenced by the coriolis effect.

Just because I don't follow my own advice, doesn't mean I don't have good advice, lol.

A good external antenna would probably do the trick, but obviously that will cost a few dollars.

Well, my kids bought a wireless connection for the xbox, which simplified the process... it connects wirelessly to the wireless router. Not sure of the cost though. I'm sure a cat5 cable is cheaper, but I'm all about the wireless.
