Geocache Description:


Located in a moist spot in SWFWMD's Conner Preserve, the cache is a Very Small Rubbermaid Container with room for a log book. BYOP.

A popular misconception is that the Coriolis effect determines the direction in which bathtubs or toilets drain, and that water always drains in one direction in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the other direction in the Southern Hemisphere. This myth has perhaps been perpetuated by the Simpsons episode "Bart Vs. Australia," in which protagonist Bart Simpson has a young Australian boy confirm that his toilet water in the Southern Hemisphere spins in the opposite direction from Bart's own in the Northern Hemisphere. The myth is also propagated by the plethora of websites claiming that this fallacy is true. Strangely, many of these sites claim that drain water spins clockwise north of the equator, and counterclockwise south of it, which is reversed from direction of spin that would result from the Coriolis force, if it were a determining factor.

...And now for the standard M&M geocaching disclaimers!

Dense tree cover may affect your final GPS readings so of course you may have to use your geocaching intuition to find the actual cache. Please rehide the cache securely and conceal it well so it cannot be seen. Have fun!
