  14. I got 15 right. I have a problem with #10 though.The effect you're talking about (the Coriolis effect) is not strong enough to effect water going down a drain.Clockwise north and counterclockwise south is a myth.I answered that one "both" so I guess I actually got 16 right.Still not anything to be really proud of though.
