the movement. Indeed, one prediction shows that in 2050 it will be off
the Siberian coast.

Interesting also how it moves around 85km a day, in a diurnal variation..

Yes. *Perhaps that relates to what Art was asking about.

Among other things:
Many authors have pointed out that the dipole part of the magnetic field
has been weakening during historic times, and that if the present trend
continues, the dipole field will go to zero in roughly 1500 years. Some
people take this to mean that we are entering a reversal.

Maybe Al Gore should look into this. *Cheryl Crow could do a college tour.

Good links, Jim. *Thanks.

Yes that is what I was talking about,With the poles of the Sun showing
no evidence of continuing its rotation
and where the poles of the Earth are accelerating instead of slowing
it could easily be seen as a tranfer of momentum or inertia.
If the Sun becomes passive and the Earth rotates on a eleven year
cycle. then a ice age could appear in the next 11 years!
11 years is starkly different to the 1000s of years that scientists
usually talk about. If the pole continuese this accelleration what is
there to stop it?
Let's hope the Sun shows some activity so I can test my antenna using
the "strong force" instead of the "weak force" and really shake this
group up.
