OP I remember having been haunted by a description of a maelstrom in a short story possibly by Edgar Allen Poe, but my memory is very vague on this point of authorships.
In the story, a boat is pulled down into a maelstrom off the coast of a Scandanavian country, I believe.
Anyway, are the winds partly responsible for this phenomenon?
We've listed lots of winds, but have we mentioned cyclones, twisters, tornadoes, and other general windstrosities other than the hurricane? (Hmmmm, I wonder what a cane has to do with a hurricane? And does the hurri have anythin' to do with hurry? Actually, having witnessed many an ADHD actor back stage looking for a prop, I can imagine the panic over needing a cane for an upcoming chorus number and being in a hurry to find the cane...)
Best regards from
Poor Wordwind whose computer crashed this morning...This one's a slow one I'm on that the retailer loaned me till mine's fixed...I repeat: Always back up everything with floppies; always back up everything with floppies; I didn't...)
