we never were and we never will be!
Finally a realistic explanation on why flying west to east takes less time than flying east to west(10m50s in).
That's a spicy spicy link, I didn't know thanks.
In theory it should be faster running east to west too. I looked up Usain Bolt's 9.58s wr and it was in Germany and the 100m track lies on an east/west axis.
I'm just not sure whether the race was towards the east or west
