Lets assume the poles shift this year, will it really effect more than simply a compass, or will it have an even bigger affect on humanity?

It'll have a big impact...  Imagine all the migratory creatures now migrating in reverse, and the trillions we'll need to spend to protect them!

Damn, I didn't even think of the poor birds.
But whats worse, is the idiots that will try and save them, as you say, at tax payer expense.

You cruel, heartless SOB!  Don't you know the birds and fish and butterflies are more important in the big scheme of things than you ugly, hateful, mean carbon producer!

I'm sure if we dedicate $10 trillion to the re-education and training of the animals over the next 10 years we can avert the distaster that would surely End Life As We Know It.

;D

Maybe we can compromise and tape tiny magnets to their heads and point them north? ::)
I wear it like a badge of honor. 8)

Well now just look what the Owl did for Washington and Oregon.  ::)
So don't forget the job loss.  :o

I love it!

Or - tinfoil hat ON - maybe HAARP is the Government's way of helping out the animals when the poles finally flip?  a huge electromagnet up North...;)

Oooh ooh ooh we could convince libs that by building a series of nuke plants that it would create a magnetic field that would mimic the north field and the animals would never know the difference.

Hey, if they are stupid enough to believe Gore on AGW and elect a Marxist based on hope and change, then why can't we get a bunch of nuke plants built right under their collective noses?
As long as it's for the critters, I'm sure they will go for it. :D

Impossible to say but the flipping of the poles is a regular phenomenon so I think the critters will probably do OK. Less sure about how civilization will respond though.

I'd agree, or there would be record of mass extinction along the same time lines every time the poles shifted.
People on the other hand have become seriously spoiled by daily comforts and take daily life for granted.
I think those in the cities will be more affected than say those in rural areas or even more remote areas, like secluded tribes in Brazil, where they probably won't even know a shift took place.

Only if you can profit from it, and I'm sure someone will find a way. ;)

Hmmm...  You know, that graph up above looks a LOT like this one:



Which is, of course, the famous Mann hockey stick for global warming.  Maybe we stumbled upon the actual cause of global warming - the poles are wandering! :o
