Shift of Earth's Magnetic Pole

Shift of Earth's Magnetic Pole

Well, a whole weird lot of stuff has been happening lately. The birth of a two head calf, the millions of dead fish washing ashore, thousands of dead bird falling from the sky. If there is a connection, I don't know what it is. The experts, who are folks paid to tell the public that everything is alright, and that the sky isn't falling, are telling us that this is all normal, has happened before, and are not things about which we should be worrying.

Oh, yes, the North Pole is moving too. Now, I heard years ago that this was normal. But in the past, the North Pole didn't move as fast as it is now.

From the NBC Nightly News -- "The magnetic north is moving. aviators know it has always moved but not like this. It's just skipping along, on the move about 40 miles a year now along the polar cap toward Russia. It's a natural, unstoppable occurrence, but because of it, some airport runways calibrated by compass are now three or four degrees off." See the video.
