 AK>> Why does "go south" mean something wrong?

 DH> This is a long story, best explained I think, at
 DH> https://www.courant.com/news/connecticut/hc-xpm-2006-12-26-0612260438-story.html

 DH> In brief, on most maps South is down so the correlation
 DH> becomes "going down" = "going South" = "going bad". There are other
 DH> possibilies.. let me know if you can't access the link.

It's OK, I managed to read it. Thanks.

Bye, Dallas Hinton!
