I think there are a few more major occurances in line...if this were to occur. I might even start thinking that this problem with the atmosphere (the hole) at the South Pole...might be related to this ongoing event. And perhaps the hole has nothing to do with the pollution problems.

[Blood of Tyrants]

This is Bush's fault.

...raising the remote possibility ....

So very, very remote it isn't worth mentioning. How much money was spent to divine this? I'm sure I'm in the wrong line of business.

[stylin_geek]

I wonder if global warming will be blamed for, or a side effect of the decreasing magnetic field?

And perhaps the hole has nothing to do with the pollution problems.

Then again, maybe she does...

: )

[sd-joe]

Even the North magnetic pole can no longer stand Canada and wants out. :-)

[oyez]

You forgot "Women and minorities hardest hit."

[Maceman]

This is Bush's fault.

Sounds like we need a UN conference on what to do abou this.

There must be some way that we can solve this problem if only we will give the UN all the money and authority it needs to act.

[avg_freeper]

I plan on buying me a bunch of lead speedos before this ever happens.

[Liberal Classic]

If magnetic north changes, will that mean I live in the southern hemisphere? Y2K was a bust what about this? :)

LOL. good one.

That'll be enough of that now. The ozone hole was caused by people -- people at greedy corporations. Any evidence that it's a natural effect should be ignored, buried, and discounted altogether.

Don't you people grasp the severity of this situation? Obviously this weakening of the Earth's magnetic field is a direct result of our widespread use of magnets, which operate by sapping the Earth's magnetic field. Governments the world over have to immediately take action to prevent global catastrophe! We need to immediately enter into treaties to limit the use of magnets, and legislate strict magnetic emmissions standards for all machinery that uses them in its operation! We can't wait and study the subject further, because any delay will only compound the coming global crisis! It's for the children!

[reagan_fanatic]

Congress should enact a 7 millennia waiting period on all magnetic reversals.

[Revolting cat!]

This is Bush's fault.

Naw, it's those damned SUV's!

[caisson71]

This article is hilarious. A bunch of "scientists" got together for a seroius discussion about what may or may not happen 1,500 - 2,000 years from now?

[mtbrandon49]

Hundreds of years could pass before a flip-flopped field returned to where it was 780,000 years ago

I want to see the guy that was around the first time it happened.

[PogySailor]

Didn't we send a team with nukes to start the core spinning again?

Oh wait, this isn't about the movie "The Core"?

Nevermind.......

[Ditter]

OK help me out here. When the polls flip do we all get whiplash or is it sudden death?

I really don't have time for this now. "I'm in a bind, I'm way behind!"

[Coop]

If only we hadn't withdrawn from the Kyoto pact.
