I understand the above is tracking southward.
What are the implications of this phenomenon?

He's off his meds again. He's angry with everyone it seems.

If the North Pole is moving all around and the South Pole isn't I'd really
be worried.

Amen!

Much as it pains me to do so, I have to agree with you here. The agonic
line used to run smack dab through my home when I was a kid. Now it's about
100 miles east.

When you have to confirm property limits from a survey completed in 1951...
and that survey is based on Magnetic North bearings... Geological Survey of
Canada can provide the exact location as well as path of travel of the
Magnetic North for any year recorded. I have been to the Magnetic North in
1983.

I'm guessing that by the current magnetic survey, my property must be in
Ohio by now.

Did you see God? Or Elvis?
