Re: Snipper Roberts wouldn't know his Arse from his Elbow.

Henri Wilson says...

Do you really think your hot dog stand actually has a force acting
on it just because you viewed it from an equally imaginary rotating frame?

That's why Coriolis force and Centrifugal force are considered
*fictitious* forces. They don't appear in inertial frames using
Cartesian coordinates. You think otherwise, then post a derivation
of the Coriolis force in an inertial frame.
