How is Wolfowitz voting for Clinton germane? Do you really believe that she will listen to a word he says?
This is a ridiculous premise as I told you in that other thread.

Wolfowitz may be a lot of things, but being a moron isn't one of them regarding Trump's competence and fitness for POTUS.

Are tornado watches self-winding?
I'd say "yes".

Since the earth is self winding or is that a trick question?

Sure it is, now, but what about in ten billion years?

With the advent of global warming, the earth will probably spin faster due to the increased energy it receives. Or earth is the perpetual motion machine that Newton envisioned.

Good question. I'm not familiar with Newton's theory on this, but barring solar energy involvement, I'd think with the dynamics of weather, ocean currents, and polar magnetics re core motion, the rotation gradually slows.

An increase in rotational momentum would result in an increase in gravity. I'm having enough trouble getting around already.

The earth spins due to inertia, it was born spinning from a disk of spinning gas and dust. Gravational sources, notably the sun and moon, affect the spinning, but I don't think temperature or radiation input do so.
