Moderator note: river has been warning officially for attempting to re-open a closed thread, thus overriding a moderator's action in closing the thread in the first place.
It might have been possible to have a sensible discussion about the topic of that thread, which appears here:
http://www.sciforums.com/threads/how-does-water-not-spin-off-the-earth.162679
However, in his opening post,
river adds nothing new, and in the ongoing thread he adopts similar troll-like tactics to those of the poster whose thread was closed in the first place. This is unacceptable.

Further explanation:
Atmospheric pressure , with temperature .
Is my answer
This is river's opening post. It purports to be an answer to the question "How can there possibly be water above and below the equator when there is no mechanics to hold the water in those locations on a spinning sphere?"
river was well aware that the error in the question had already been pointed out in the previous thread - i.e. that there
is "mechanics" that holds the water where it is on the spinning globe.
Notice that river has not at any point attempted to address the explanation given for the actual reason that water does not flow from the north and southern oceans towards the equator due to "centrifugal force", despite being well aware that an explanation was given. This is troll-like behaviour.
Notice also that river's "answer" amounts to four words, and is a non-explanation. He makes no attempt to explain how "atmospheric pressure, with temperature" would answer the original question. So this, too, is a troll-like time-waster. The aim can only be to generate discussion as people are compelled to ask questions to probe into what river could possibly mean by his "answer".
Later in the thread, river makes further nonsense or indecipherable claims, like this one:
Gravity is moving outward .
That prompts the obvious question:
RainbowSingularity said:
To which river's response is:
Through frequency .
Either physically ( vibration ) ; and/or electromagnetically .
Again, troll-like non-explanations.
Then, a bit further down, we get a typical troll-like provocation:
In the bigger picture of our Universe gravity matters little .
