I look at it like spinning a glass full of bubbling soda pop. The bubbles facing North still face North after spinning the glass. Go figure! >> Not exactly John, What I am saying is that at pressure, density of the gas frictionally interacting with the walls of the bottle, which in all actuality are far from smooth, will create movement or coriolis effect. Also, the gas is not a solid and by laws of rotation ( think of a flywheel) the radius vector at the furthest point from the center of the bottle is moving at a far greater speed than the gas at the center, naturally causing movement, or mixing of the gas. If you do this with a liquid, you will eventually achieve the same effect. So, sit or spin, the point really is that one method should be done before your final analyzation of the mix, or use.
