I managed 20. Not too shabby. If I had thought harder, I think I could have gotten 2 more. Oh well.

A note: #11 is a very common misperception. But false nonetheless. Gravity, the shape of the bowl, and any induced flow all play bigger roles than does the coriolis effect. The coriolis effect can only be reasonably observed in extremely large systems, such as weather phenomena.
