    And then we could make it spin the other way if everyone on the planet ran the opposite direction to its rotation.

    This is getting to be a bit excessive.

    This will happen when it all melts anyways,then a new ice age,new deposits of ice at the poles,back on track in a few 100 million years.

    Maybe it'll shift it back from the 2 degree deviation we experienced during the 2004 Sumatra quake.

    Hopefully the inland sea will come back to where it was after the last big melt and I'll have beachfront property.
    Kiss Calgary and Edmonton goodbye.Those would become good fishin holes. :lol:

    I've been wondering why I've been feeling unbalanced for the last few years... :lol: I forgot all about that one. There will be another group that will follow up with a study that says something else and the debate will go on. Natural changes/Man-made changes, Warmer/Colder...

    I guess that instead of putting a new concrete foundation under my house, I should be putting pontoons and gathering up the ladies two-by-two, eh! :lol:

    Pah.

    Everyone in North America is getting fatter so the weight distribution remains the same.

    If that doesn't convince you, send me money to buy mass credits.
