I think that it's complete nonsense, but I have a difficult time
convincing him. He is not immune to reason, so if anyone can educate
me on some of the specific points that make the idea of a geographic,
planetary pole shift [not a magnetic reversal] ridiculous, I would
appreciate it.

Now you know what it's like to be battling Plate Tectonics on grounds
of reason.
I wonder when the idea of geomagnetic reversal was first
proposed? Does anyone know, because in reading
some Emily Dickinson, she wrote this probably around
1850 to 1880 or so.
Arcturus is his other name,
I 'd rather call him star!
It 's so unkind of science
To go and interfere!
What once was heaven, is zenith now.
Where I proposed to go
When time's brief masquerade was done,
Is mapped, and charted too!
What if the poles should frisk about
And stand upon their heads!
I hope I 'm ready for the worst,
Whatever prank betides!
