I disagree. If you are thinking that the syphon(sp?) effect rules out gravity it dosn't when there are 2 outlets and one of the outlets is lower than the other as a syphon effect will not work that way. That only works with one outlet. So the least resistance would be down and gravity will play a role in that.
