The answer is in fact, both! Good one eh, I love these scientific questions. Everyone thinks that just because drug dealers make truck loads of cash and are not overly speedy to eschew violence they probably don’t have too much upstairs. Frankly this is a form of discrimination.

Anyway the Coriolis Effect is to do with the way various things are affected by the spin of the earth or something like that. People think that water flows down the sink in different directions in the northern and southern hemisphere. But actually they don’t. To prove it I called my distributor in Australia, (we’ll call him Bruce, because Bruce is such a funny name and also 45% of Aussies are called Bruce or Chopper). Anyway ‘Bruce’ confirmed that the water in his sink flows down the same way as in mine. Mind you my sink was imported from Chile which is in the southern hemisphere so that doesn’t really prove anything. So just take my word for it, the Coriolis Effect can influence weather systems etc but not something as insignificant as water flow in your sink. I could go on but frankly I am bored with the whole thing now.
