What You Need To Know About The UGANDA’S EQUATOR LINE by edwapkalmeed(m): 6:50am On Dec 13, 2015
“Did you know that if you poured water in a funnel on the northern hemisphere it runs clockwise and in the southern hemisphere it runs counter-clockwise and right on the line the water goes straight?” Being able to stand on the equator is a privilege only a few have the opportunity to experience, as the imaginary line passes through a only few countries in Africa, South America, several islands; and oceans. The demonstration that you are about to see is one of a kind– and i bet — it will blow your mind– and perhaps you will learn a few things about the forces of nature. “If you pour water when you are northern side of the equator on top of this funnel it drains in the clockwise direction and on the southern side it will change and drain anti-clockwise. And right here on the straight-line there won’t is any movement. And this is caused by the cirrhosis’ effect of the magnetic field. After pouring the reason why i put this metal is just to make the water calm down so that i does not pour. After making it still, i drop this flower on top to show its direction: it runs clockwise. This means that those who are living in the northern hemisphere: when you flush your toilet or open the sink plug the water will run clockwise. Southern hemisphere: the flower changes direction and runs anti-clockwise. Some countries in the southern hemisphere for example New Zealand and Argentina all there toilets flush this direction. Did you know that the equator traverses the land and territorial waters of 14 countries and seven of them are in Africa? Uganda is one of the few countries in the world that the equator intersects. The equator crosses through Uganda approximately 72 kilometers south of Kampala, along the famous Kampala – Masaka road.

The most depressing thing in the world, i think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. There is so much to learn and discover on this earth that it is forgiven if we live as a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity of knowledge.

Advances in science & engineering look like a drop in the ocean but it is my firm belief that someday, the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality and the frightful position man will find himself at the possession of such astounding power.
