From what I understand the direction of water in a flushing toilet bowl is due to the rotation of the earth on its axis so that will not change when the earth flips its magnetic field.

If I remember right, the coriolis effect does have something to do with the magnetic field of the planet, along with the rotation.
I could be wrong, though. There's a first time for everything. 8o)

Actually, it has to do with the way water flows into the bowl and nothing to do with the earth's rotation, magnetic fields or anythng else.
