"Luckily, the effect is expected to be relatively small, and shouldn’t induce any negative feedback in the planet’s climate. It just needs to be taken into account when interpreting shifts in Earth’s axis."

Although small, there is a risk that we will all slide off the planet as it tilts. In order to quantify this level of risk, I shall need a rather substantial grant ...

Yeah, it’s already tilted AlGores axis! He’s still looking for his Norwood-Dingell lockbox!

In that case, let’s all join hands and tilt the other way..
To: mbarker12474
The axis has been shifting for some time now. “global warming” isn’t going to affect the shift any.
Also the magnetic field is always shifting. Will they blame that on “global warming” too?

Article not there any longer.
Are they talking about Chandler’s Wobble discovered in 1891?

As big as Al's butt is all he would have to do is stand up to shift the world axis.

You know when I came home from bar hopping last Friday night I noticed that no matter how hard I held onto the the edge of the front lawn to keep from being flung into space, the rotation and tilt of the earth kept me drifting towards magnetic north.
More research to come next weekend.

Hmmm... I was just looking at it. You might have to do a search or wander around on the site itself. The link I posted is probably overcome by automated story indexing on the site.....

i’m sure women and minorities will incur significantly more negative effects of this tilt.

Does anyone need to ask who is paying for this “research”?
