The geological record shows that the earth's magnetic poles do shift from time to time. Different polarity of iron molecules in different strata. As Little Hawk says, it can be measured with scientific instruments (and it would throw our current compasses off until we adjust navigation to the where, geographically, the new North Pole is, and it may confuse migratory birds and monarch butterflies for awhile), but thee and me will not even notice the shift.

What kind of physical forces are there in this neighborhood of our galaxy that would cause a planet which is approximately 8,000 miles in diameter with a mass of 5.9742 × 10²⁴ kilograms to suddenly stop and begin rotating the other way, or cause it to flip over, pole to pole?

'Course, such a catastrophe might be preferable to having Sarah Palin as president. . . .

The news story described the shoes as "red, Naughty Monkey Double-Dare pumps." Now who wouldn't want THOSE???? Wish they'd included a picture...

$2,025.00 for a pair of her shoes? Surely she could get a lot more for a pair of her used panties!
I might pay a nickle for a pair; I can always use a rag to apply wood stain with.

The idea of Palin writing her own autobiography is ludicrous. If it is true, then she will have to come across much more lucidly in print than in vive voce. Of course, she will have plenty of time, as her current job is apparently not very demanding.

Yup...

The only copy I ever bought was the one where John Lennon was interviewed...

Though I also have the "text only" of the interview of Martin Luther King...

But, yeah, I love the folks who say they only buy it for the interviews... What a joke... Half of them can't read...

Well, I'm all for Ms. Sarah runnin' for Prez in '12... I mean, who else could kill off the remnants of the Republican Party better than Ms. Hottie??? Plus, maybe she'd take up Hugh Hefner's offer for a little estra publicity...

(There you go, Bobert... Didn't that get you the "blast" from the Mud-womenz last time you brought it up???)

Well, yeah... Who cares... I'd buy the mag if she were in it just as a collector's item...

It depends on which particular 2012 prediction (or prophecy) you are referring to, Alice. There are many different ones. Many have to do with various ancient Amerindian traditional stories from North and South America, as well as other ancient cultural tales. Many have to do with a polar shift of some kind and/or a reversal of the Earth's direction of rotation on its axis. I don't think I have ever heard of the "galaxy alignment" story before. If someone concocted that one with deliberate intention to deceive people, then of course it's a hoax. If not, if they are sincere about it and they believe it for some reason, then it's not a hoax...they are (I would think) simply in error.

The word "hoax" means a deliberate attempt to deceive. People are often wrong in their predictions of future events, but they're not trying to deceive anyone if they actually believe what they're saying, in which case...it's not a hoax. It's just wrong, period.

Of course it can be stated that it is a hoax - NASA astrobiologist has pointed out that the 2012 "galaxy alignment" is an internet hoax.

ask an astrobiologist at NASA


"... I can't explain it because it is just an Internet hoax. There is no alignment with the center of the Galaxy in 2012 or any time."

I'm curious, Maple Leaf Boy...are you talking about a magnetic pole shift or a physical shift of the planet on its axis? The first would be a subtle event, not perceptible to ordinary human senses, but detectable with scientific equipment. The second would be a worldwide catastrophe.

And if it's a magnetic shift you are referring to, would that also be accompanied by a reversal of the Earth's direction of rotation on its axis? (in which case the sun would then rise in the west)

Just curious which particular theory you are referring to, that's all...not expressing any opinion about it one way or another.

No one has any way of knowing if the various predictions and prophecies about 2012 are "a hoax" (or just merely incorrect) or not. I won't be surprised if nothing unusual happens in 2012. I won't be totally astounded if something unusual does happen. Why? Because I have no basis of being 100% sure on either possibility, so why should I pretend (as so many do) that I do have such a basis?

I don't know. So I'll wait and see.

It's polar shifts. The "world" that we know is going to end, and a
new one is going to begin. But, the world is not going to end-end.
The Earth's rotation is going to change, and our North and South Poles
will be in different places. This will cause climate changes to occur.
The worry is that if the polar shift occurs too quickly.
This is based on the beliefs of some South-western U.S. Native peoples,
according to a documentary that I once watched. They believe that the
world began four times, and has ended three times. Once the polar shifts
occur, then metaphorically the world has ended, and a new one has began.
A new world with a new North and South Pole. It is expected to happen
three years from now, or at least not far from it.
The world won't literally end for another 3 billion years, unless the Sun should burn out.

Do not underestimate this woman. She is very shrewd and very eager for power. Palin learned a lot over these past few months.
