Cheers, Joan > Hi Joan & All, Jan 23, 2007 The Coriolis effect is limited to movement in relatively large systems so I would not expect any change in direction. I tried to start it first thing this morning (cold pot & brisk fire) and it worked like a charm. So large rate of heating of the pot or contents is necessary (it is not possible to build a brisk fire after a bed of hot coals has been produced). Perhaps convection drives the oscillation, because convective flow would be biased slightly to the high side of the pot. Yt, DW
