Re: spin drift. (Coriolis Effect?)

"Complain all you want about my mention of rotation in drains and toilets..."

That is a myth. Toilet flow direction is determined by the design of the jets in the rim of the bowl. The coriolis effect is too weak to effect that small amount of water flowing into the bowl.

I believe that Snopes has a write-up on the subject.
