>>>>we have a great map in our school office which show the world <scare quotes>upside down</scare quotes>. all the labels are correctly orientized, and I believe the Atlantic Ocean is in the center. some kids just don't get it. some adults complain, too... sheesh.
I have a map like that eta. (thank you Cap bec-bec) People who look at it don't complain, but they do get un uneasy feeling about Hudson's Bay.
It looks like it is going to get emptied out of all its water. I think it's a psychological/emotional thing. It looks like a cup, you turn a cup upside-down and it empties out, so the Bay will empty out if North is brought to the bottom.
