does it seem like a pole reversal will be disastrous,how does your conclusion compare with your hyputhesis?

Is this a homework question? Your phrasing suggests it is.\n\nThere is no evidence in the fossil record that there are any negative effects of a pole reversal, assuming you are talking about the earth's polarity. \n\nHere is a good site to read up on it:\nhttp://image.gsfc.nasa.gov/poetry/venus/RevScience.html\n\nThe earth has experienced hundreds of polarity reversals over time and so far none of them can be correlated with any large negative effect on lifeforms. We are currently undergoing a probable pole reversal. The earth's magnetic field has been losing strength at the fastest rate ever observed, however, even at this rate of decline it will likely take about 2000 years to reach zero field strength. Further, it is unlikely to actually reach zero field strength before there is a reversal of polarity. It is also possible that the decline will reverse itself and not result in a polarity reversal. Most likely a polarity reversal will occur at around 10 percent of current field strength. The paleomagnetic record does not reveal any zero field strength periods, suggesting that the reversals don't happen that way. Fear of extraterrestrial radiation sources is ungrounded because there is no evidence of the field ever reaching zero strength. \n\nThe last polarity reversal was 730,000 years before present. Nothing interesting happened other than the polarity reversal. There are good climate records in Chinese loess deposits that show that weather patterns and climate did not change. No animal extinctions can be corelated with that reversal.\n\nAnimals that migrate using magnetic fields for navigation have never been disrupted in the past. It appears that they will have many generations to adapt to a changing field. Additionally, they are unaffected by the very large wandering of the current poles, so this suggests they will easily adapt.

It is generally accepted as a fault which dips greater than 45 degrees.  It can be either a reverse or a normal fault.

I got a tubaligation yrs ago.. haven't wanted to get it reversed, but was told that I could.  With a 50/50 chance of getting preganat.\n\nIts expensive though...

i would do what your doctor told you to do, yes the surgery is bad...but you could become paralyzed from L4 down, you don't want to mess with your back

I've never heard of anyone being afraid of flip tricks. The chance of falling while doing one on flat is so low, and if you do fall it won't hurt too bad. Just stick the trick like a man, and ride away.

No(yes). It is not real(it is).\n\nhttp://www.poleshift.org/sublim/

Been a few years since I have been there and it was great fun. I had a Blind friend with me and he was not affected. He let me know right away that there was a tilt to the house.\n\nI proceeded to tell him about the optical illusions I was experiencing so he could enjoy it with me. The tilting creates optical illusions. I also closed my eyes and could really feel the tilt. I found out later, the house is tilted at a 20-degree angle from the ground\n\nEven though I knew the secret, it did not diminish the fun. I know a lot of secrets to illusions of magic and I still enjoy watching them preformed. It is not how it is done that counts, it is how well.

No but if you really believe it, everything bad that happens to you will be blamed on the mirror. It depends on how much you believe in it. I have never broken a mirror but I walk under ladders, spill salt without tossing some over my shoulder, etc. and nothing really bad has happened to me. I think superstition has more to do with unfortunate coincidences.

Very poorly.  Its all a matter of balance, shifting you weight, left and right to turn.  Keep your head up and your helment on.

Hmm,...  better chance then a Comet,.. not as dangerous as a Comet,...\n\nAlthough I enjoy the Advertisement where the old guy is like "  Global Warming in 20 years *train honks in background and you figure out he is on train tracks with it heading towards him*  NOT MY PROBLEM"  then he hopes off and a little girl is standing behind where he was about to get hit.\n\nI don't think this is something I could prepare for or care about.  Also you might get some people here that will fight with you about how the South Pole doesn't exsist because Santa doesn't live there or something.\n\nAgain,.. nothing we could do and hopefully not my problem.  But HEY,.. if it actually hit the South Pole hard enough (which it will hopefully break down before getting there) then maybe some people will get an unexpected Tropical Vacation before the flood of cold water decreaces temp of Earth and as some project would send us into an Ice Age again.

Depends how it happened. If it switched off then back on again in the other direction we'd all fry from solar radiation. Plus all our electronics would stop working. If it just rotates....well....birds'll get lost, compasses will need recalibrating, but apart from that very little.\n\nThe interesting thing is, we don't know which is going to happen, just that one of them will!

With my luck trying to do this I would fall out of my chair face first...... ok ok I tried it, and my foot went into reverse when I tried to draw the number 6...now I feel like a fool with everyone watching me.....They say I have now lost it!

Earth's magnetic field constantly fluctuates to some degree (it's weakened by about 10% since the 19th Century), but the majority of geophysicists see no hard evidence that the field is about to reverse like it's done in the past.\n\nEven should it reverse, the whole cycle takes thousands of years, and still would have little effect on our electrical power systems. Nor would planes fall from the sky, although reliance on magnetic compasses would have to be adjusted.\n\nGod should be spelled B-I-G B-A-N-G\nPBrax@netscape.com

Yeah, it's called denial. I wouldn't want to be you when it catches up , if it's bad. Good Luck!

lol, pass that on to the secretary. they wouldnt touch that with a 100' pole. i wish they would tho, accountability in government.\nhttp://scotthortonshow.com/\nmoney, http://www.philipdru.com/griffin_stream.html\nbush & clinton http://www.philipdru.com/triplett_stream.html\nisrael http://antiwar.com/justin/?articleid=8730\nhttp://www.philipdru.com/webb_stream.html\niran http://www.weekendinterviewshow.com/InterviewDisplay.aspx?i=131

It can certainly make you feel nauseous.  It's different from when you were a child because your centre of gravity is so much further from the floor!  If I were you I wouldn't spin around too much unless you want to feel pretty yuk afterwards :)

I read an article about this a while ago. While some radiation will be let through, it will not be devastating. The poles have switched a few times and it has not killed of mass numbers of humans, animals, or plants.
