Has to do with the spinning of this marble we live on. 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? -- 73, Cecil, http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |
