Does this mean my Celestron needs to be re-programmed?

2005 is clearly Bush’s fault. 1920 is presumably his grandfather’s fault. 1850 is probably the fault of his great-great-great-grandfather James Smith Bush.

Speaking of poles, without one to grasp onto, it’s no wonder she’s wobbling back & forth

This will have terrible implications for women and minorities.

Maybe Nancy Leider is right about the polar shift? ;)

It is a left brain, right brain exercise. To see her spinning both ways means you are switching between your right brain and left brain.

The changes to the Chandler (Bing) wobble were completely unexpected by scientists! LOL!

So the Congressman who claimed the island of Guam was becoming top heavy and might tip over was on to something.

it's constantly raining at the equator, somewhere, every day ~ there's an enormous belt of storms there. As mountains and other land masses rise the rain comes down and dissolves a little bit ~ the water eventually flows into the world ocean a tad heavier than when it fell due to its salt content.
That could easily account for the creation of the pressure on the ocean bottom that drives the wobble.
With only a couple of major data points we don't know if this is related to anything in particular ~ I do believe this measurement is near the limits of quantum noise.

Wonder if the 2004 Christmas 9.2 quake along with the Easter 2005 8.x quake had something to do with this? I know the former speeded up the Earth’s rotation by a few microseconds.
