Must explain why I felt dizzy the other day!

Must be because of all the weight I have lost!

Hopefully the impact will be minimal. I read somewhere that we need to adjust the calendar as a result.

Your calendar must have more digits of precision than mine.

Ah, this explains why the water seems to rotate faster as it goes down our drains now. And in the southern hemisphere it rotates in the opposite direction due to the coriolis effect. Thanks for the interesting link and article AntennaGuy, and the best of regards.

I wonder if the huge number of satellites going into orbit might increase the earth's rotation? Hopefully something else we can blame Elon for!

I wondered why my head was spinning faster too.
