Called the "Coriolis Effect". In the Northern Hemisphere,
relative to the axis of rotation, points toward the north
move slower than points to the south. If we lived on a
cylinder rather than a sphere, we probably wouldn't have
any hurricanes.

Say, since math models seem to be able to dictate reality,
wouldn't a simple transformation from spherical coordinates
to cylindrical coordinates stop the hurricanes?
