Foucault thread

I did the experiment again today in the small angle regime. I used about 50 feet of steel of wire as the tether on a 45lb pendulum. I observed a few degrees of clockwise precession in about 20 minutes. This supports a hypothesis that I am in North America. The angle between the strings at the bottom of the frame is 10 degrees.

While this was the most carefully performed experiment so far, and I should trust it more than my previous runs, I became immediately suspicious that I had been sedated and kidnapped again. I went to go examine some graffiti that I had written and that I had observed. My most recent graffiti which was styled enough to be hard to reproduce had been painted over. All of the nearby graffiti that I had noticed was also painted over. It is quite likely that someone immediately painted over my graffiti as a fuck you to me in a neighborhood where every wall has been covered with it for many years, and therefore it having been painted over immediately is not strong evidence that I switched locations recently. Since I could not verify that my own writing was still on the wall, I went to verify the other new graffiti I had seen appear as new work during my brief time in "New York." At pic related location, after I wrote 762 under a nearby bridge, someone had spray painted a T-head graffiti man on this fence. When I went to examine it today, it was not on the fence and the fence had not been freshly painted. Next, I will repeat the experiment in the alley behind the hotel.
