Maybe the good people of Kolkata, India are less superstitious than the rest
of the world that has been so eager to speculate about Manchester Museum's
'spinning Egyptian statue'.
If you know anyone still confused about it, please share this link to my
YouTube movie demonstrating the probable cause.

I feel strongly that this is another way we can make a difference...
Promoting public engagement with science
through a contagious delight in phenomena

Give people facts and you feed their minds for an hour.
Awaken curiosity and they feed their own minds for a lifetime.

I saw a version of this running with a spinning metallic "egg" in a bowl
over 3 rotors in the Bardhaman Science Center serving an isolated rural
village in India yesterday. Everyone understood what was happening.
(Birla Industrial & Technology Museum in Kolkata is the hub of the
satellite rural museum network which includes Bardhaman. Amazing, high
quality work going on) This is where we can make a difference...
