I do believe that this is where we are today in "science". Please tell us all again the answers to AGW... "Answers" let you tax, "questions" don't.

As it approaches the center, it goes faster and faster around it. But its own dimensions don't change, so it experiences greater acceleration as it gets closer to center. For certain sizes of vortices, that acceleration must be great enough to make space turn sideways to get away from it. john
