"airport runways, social security #s, and yellow shafted flickers"
Thought that subject line might get your attention!
On
Friday, Fox News reported that a Florida airport had shutdown a runway
due to the Earth's magnetic shift. I only heard it broadcast
once, so I researched it online and found out it was at Tampa.
According to the internet, the magnetic North Pole (not
geographical) has been migrating annually approximately 40 miles
towards Russia. GPS systems are dependent on the Earth's
magnetic field and today Tampa's coordinates needed readjusting.
I don't know why it was just Tampa.
I don't like to
correct people's posts, but when I went to the Social Security card
link that someone posted, it said that Social Security numbers would
NOT be issued with the beginning digits of 666. I must admit that
the audio was a little hard to hear during that statement.
And
now to the Yellow Shafted Flicker-- after searching the internet, I
believe this was the type of bird that flew into my picture window a
few days ago. Maybe his navigation was off, or maybe he was
trying to battle the red Christmas sign that read "Peace" that was
displayed in my window. Anyways, he was a beautiful bird with a red
crescent on the back of his head. I was glad that he was just
stunned and flew away after a few seconds of resting on my porch
furniture. Later I wondered if his faulty navigation could have
been related to the blackbird deaths that happened around the same
time. bc
