The '''Coriolis effect''' is way in which the rotation of the earth bends the path of winds, sea currents, and objects that fly through different latitudes.<ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With Physical Science''. Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 1999, 2000</ref> Popular mythology states that when a toilet is flushed in the Northern Hemisphere, the water rotates in a [[clockwise]] direction, but if a toilet is flushed in the Southern Hemisphere, the water rotates in a [[counter-clockwise]] direction; however, the coriolis effect on such a small volume of water is negligible. <ref>http://www.snopes.com/science/coriolis.asp</ref>
