    Nope, it's the Coriolis Effect. Ask Chris, he saw it with his own two eyes when he moved to Canada. Chris is quite the stickler for scientific fact so if he saw it, I believe it ;) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python."

        If water spins down the drain one way in the northern hemisphere and the other way in the southern hemisphere, does that mean if you stir your coffee the same way in each it will in fact stir faster?

          I knew I heard somewhere it wasn't true... If I had a better memory I would remember more.

                It's quicker to just munch on the beans ;) "Oh, I'm sick of doing Japanese stuff! In jail we had to be in this dumb kabuki play about the 47 Ronin, and I wanted to be Oshi, but they made me Ori!"

                            An episode of The Simpsons[^] addresses this question. :rolleyes: Bart: "Do the toilets go backwards in here?" U.S Embasy guy: "No. To combat home sickness, we've installed a device that makes them swirl the correct American way." *Flushes toilet. Machine kicks in and water swirls the other way* Homer (weeping, singing): "Sweet land of liberty..." Steve
