Posing the question of why we have SPIN, at all, much less spin that
affects suns and planets (rotation), solar systems (ecliptic planes),
and glaxies that seem to be consistent far outside of a random pattern.
The answers to this man's questions have variously been:

2. ANGULAR MOTION: Spinning things shrink and can spin faster then so
   the original direction can be accentuated.  This begs the question of
   WHY they can spin faster, or would want to.  What would be causing the
   increase in speed?  This clearly relevant factor has been avoided.

Existing ZetaTalk on who spin increase with  a diminished center is
possible, and why the factor CAUSING spin in the first place must be
considered in this:

    Spin is a phenomenon that occurs regularly in nature and 
    is frequently observed on Earth, from the large swirls that
    hurricanes form to the small tornadoes in the middle of 
    water going down the drain. The fact that such a spin 
    moves in different directions when it is above or below the 
    equator gives evidence that spin is affected by factors 
    outside of itself. The phenomenon of spin is observable 
    when the object in motion is not constrained. Air and 
    water are fluid, but spinning tops or figure skaters on ice 
    also demonstrate the phenomena. The theoretical speed 
    of a spin is fastest toward the center of the spinning object, 
    a factor easily noted by comparing hurricane wind speeds 
    with those at the center of tornadoes. But why the 
    difference?

    Spin on the surface of the Earth reflects what is occurring
    in the core of the Earth. If the Earth were not rotating, its 
    core moving to escape or pull toward other matter in the 
    Solar System and beyond, then spin would be affected only
    by the various attractions or repulsion the spinning object 
    itself has to its immediate neighborhood. All objects on the
    face of the Earth have these same influences from the core 
    of the Earth, but this is not evident due to lack of fluidity 
    or lack of motion. Spin in an object develops slowly, and is 
    only evident to man when accumulated. Thus, water in a 
    water fall has spin, but the water at the bottom of the fall 
    cannot affect the water at the top, so the spin is not 
    compounded. Water in a drain compounds the spin at the 
    top by affecting the path of least resistance for the water at 
    the top of the drain, and thus the little tornadoes in draining 
    water.

    Spin occurs faster when the spinning object is narrow as 
    there are fewer factors to counter the spin. A large air mass 
    such as is moving during a hurricane is spread out over a 
    larger area of the core of the Earth, and thus the impetus to 
    move with the core is countered by the fact that one of the 
    outer edges, the one on the pole side, is lined up over core 
    parts that are moving slower than the other outer edge, the 
    one on the equator side. Thus small tops can spin faster for 
    the given impetus than large tops, and figure skaters find 
    they can spin faster by reducing their overall size by drawing
    their arms in and hugging themselves.
