This is the summary of my knowledge. Apparently, there is a solid metal core (Iron?) in the center of the Earth held solid by the Earths own gravity, this core spins counter to the Earth, generating a magnetic field that extends around the world keeping us safe. Now, if the core was to suddenly start moving in an entirely other direction I could see the field acting diffrently, maybe even accelerating radiation into the world. But in my opinion it would take an event even worse then Pole Reversal to make the poles reverse in 5 years anyways, so I wouldn't worry about it. By the times the poles reverse your bones won't even exist. That, in conclusion, is my opinion D:

I believe that the core is made of nickel, but either way, there is no evidence to show that we're all gonna die any time soon.

Re: 2012
Izumo is quite right. I won't speculate about the core composition, as there is no way to know conclusively at the moment, but other than that he's spot-on.

Anyways, back to the point; I did dismiss the fact that when our poles are switched, we will be bombarded with more solar radiation than is normal. And our compasses will go wacky for a while (as already happens in the Bermuda Triangle apparently) and, according to other people, we will have to get new fridges.(?)
But there is little evidence that a shift will destroy civilisation as we know it. Its happened many times before, and life still exists on this planet. So I'm confident at the very least we won't all get vaporized or shredded or something ridiculous like that.
As has been said before, there's little point speculating and worrying about things we can't change and, moreover, things we're not even sure will happen.

Three rules of Q - 1. Qegola and Quarantine both start with Q. 2. There is no U in Qegola. 3. Qegola is you new god.So a man walks into a bar with a monkey. I forgot the rest of the joke but your mom is a whore.
