The study of vortex flows can assist scientists in studying Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Cyclones, Typhoons in weather. Vortex flows are also important in efficiency of motion of boats, aircraft and Jacuzzis. Then there are ways to use these flows to generate energy too. Indeed pipelines and even toilets must use the physics of vortex flows. Perhaps it is for this reason that recently a couple of think tank members brought up the question, as one of the members stated
