[QUOTE="4mesh063, post: 29310, member: 941"] Bzzzz, wrong. Sorry Dave. Your example assumes that the shot is being takn from the equator. That is in contradiction to the original posters question. What is asked is if the shot is taken from the northern hemisphere, will it always have an effect in one direction regardless of the direction of the shot and the answer is NO it will not. Stand at a latitude any other than the equator and as per your view, the relationship of east/west right/left vary depending weather you are standing facing north or south. Ignore the common viewpoint of looking down from above the poles, you are standing on the earth. Somewhere. If you are in the N Hemis, facing north, east is to your right. If you are facing south, east is to your left. Now your 2 shots have opposite, but not equal effects. [/QUOTE]
