Earth rotation speed at the equator is about 1037mph.

You beat me to it.....

No wonder I always seem to shoot to the left. Need to compensate for that planet windage.

And?

SPLATT!!!!!

It's called coriolis effect. To the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern.

Yes - Trajectory calculation of long-range projectiles must account for the Coriolis Effect.

I'll keep that in mind the next time I take the ol' Long Tom to the range.

What if those planes didn't actually fly into the twin towers but rather the earths rotation spun the towers into the planes and life since 2001 has just been one big misunderstanding.

So, is this what causes when you take too long a stroke, it falls out, and in your haste to continue you miss and hit the sheet, leaving a painful friction burn? Earth’s rotation has caused you to miss the mark?

Almost, the heat of the meat is proportional to the motion of the ocean Equals square of the hair,

and usually after 5 or 6 of those big beers then a few shots of bulliet rye i feel it, mostly like the mph at the equator

Gravity is a bitch ain't it?
