Ken,
Sorry if I gave that impression-I just figured you were doing a lot of
studying instead of staring into toilet bowls.  8o]
Of course, when I was in college, I stared into quite a few, but was too
hung over the next day to recall which way the water went!
It was my high school physics teacher that first explained the Coriolis
effect on drains, and it wasn't until 30 years later that someone
straightened me out.
