WHAT IS ELECTRICITY?

The car example is very telling, but look at it this way.

Let's say you had a 1 foot diameter tube 5 feet long that was placed upright or vertical and full of water that is turning. The tube is suspended by chains so that you can go under the tube and see the direction of the water turning through a glass.

Let's say the distance of the tube was the to simulate the Earths' diameter. When you look under the tube, it is as is you were upright in the southern hemisphere.

Now as you change sides and move upwards you travel past the center of the tube (Earths' core) and end up on the other side. Now look at the direction of the water turning. It seems as though it is turning the other way, but it is not. The water in the whole tube is turning the same way. Only ONE direction.

So which direction does the earth spin clockwise or anticlockwise?
