Abstract
It is pointed out that recent theoretical results for the spin-up of a continuously stratified fluid with insulating boundary conditions are at variance with experiment. However, it is then shown that the theoretical analysis contains an inconsistent scaling assumption, so that the apparent contradiction is not a real one. The nature of the spin-up as shown by the experiments is briefly described.
