Ok with that exaggerated example that makes sense. It does not quite seem possible ( in my simple mind) that those same effects would happen when applied to a real world shot. Let's say your in WY. shooting facing north. Your bullet impacts right for 2 reasons, 1 your moving to the right and 2 your target is moving left. Simple enough! Now you turn around facing south and shoot the same distance. In this case you and your target are both moving the same direction (left). Are the effects of CE exactly the same? If so why? It seems like the effects would be less in the 2nd shot almost canceling it out. If you can get past the mush between my ears enough to answer that you can take a stab at explaining the effects in an east/west scenario. You've always been a good teacher, I have faith in you!
Post Script:
Hold on a minute!!! It just hit me!!! I miss spoke in the north facing scenario. The target is not moving left (duh) it is moving right but at a slower pace than the shooter. Facing south once again shooter and target are moving the same direction but this time the target is moving faster to the left than the shooter. Is this right? Did I just learn something again! Holy shi+ you guys are making my brain hurt!
Ok but still would like to hear your thoughts on east/west scenario.
