----------------------------------------------- Will We Fry Like Bacon When the Poles Flip? Are Earth’s magnetic fields set to reverse? And will life as we know it be pooched when that happens? by, Anne Casselman 30 March 2010 Question: Will we all fry like bacon when the magnetic poles flip? I do wonder. You might too (or not. And that’s okay too). Here is what we do know. The Earth’s magnetic field has weakened by 40% since the 1650s and our magnetic north pole is on the lam; it moved 64 kilometers (about 40 miles) away from Canada and towards Russia in 2009. Clearly, something is underway. That something could be a complete pole reversal, an event which, strange as it sounds, is not uncommon. Or it might just be a “geomagnetic excursion,” which is exactly what it sounds… http://www.inklingmagazine.com/articles/will-we-fry-like-bacon-when-the-poles-flip/
