And here's the quote that led me to say that: "We all agree - well, most of us - that our planet is a giant ball that spins around a central point running from pole-to-pole, completing a single rotation every 24 hours." "A more accurate description is our planet is a slightly lumpy, roughly spherically-shaped, slightly-squished sphere that spins on an axis once every 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds."
