this link http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Hairy_ball_theorem http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Hairy_ball_theorem talks about the application to the torus. It states that it is possible to completely comb the hair on a doughnut. That is the point I was trying to make earlier. I think it does imply that the wind could start blowing in the same direction if we lived on a torus. I think it would be the same if we lived inside like in science fiction movies or if we lived on the surface with a normal atmosphere.
