The Poles are going to reverse. Seriously, its happened before and its about 100,000 years overdue. The Earths magnetic field will flip & North will become South. So GPS will stop working, which means every satellite will stop working. So no TV, no mobile phones, no internet, no secure communications, no real time stock market links, no way for planes to navigate, panic in the streets, time to grab the shotguns, bottled water and tinned food. Then there will probably also be volcanic eruptions and massive earthquakes due to the disturbances deep within the earth and there will be no one to mop up.

So basically the world won't blow up but society as the planet knows it will cease to exist. It will be back to caves for all of us. Hopefully me & auntie_betty poster will find a nice comfy one with lots of animal skins. Anyway, here's Ollie with the weather, hows it looking out there Ollie?
