June '86 IS important. Not that it couldn't have happened before then - but it didn't

My source claims it's always clockwise but I reckon I've seen it go anti-clockwise also

Maybe it depends which hemisphere you're in Whistle

Not all the time, no.

Forget the science angle - think more in terms of sporting or entertainment events and in particular what happened in June '86 (and where)
