On to bed, I do believe.

I received a missive, from the friend who had informed me about the astronomical event.  He almost hadn't gotten out.  Where he is, it had rained earlier.  And he was tired, probably from life in general.  Further, it was a half hour drive to get away from light pollution in order to get a more solid viewing.

As it turned out he went on out.  And, was just as gobsmacked as I had been.  Yes, it was an amazing display.  As I suggested here, I thanked him for confirming my findings.  Of course, I suggested to him, that perhaps that might suggest the polar flip is closer than I had anticipated.  Maybe, or not.  No need to worry about it.  If it happens, it'll be quick.

They have found wooly mammoths with flash frozen flowers in their frozen mouths.  That's... the wooly ones.  We, or I, am not wooly.  We are closer to the flowers than that particular mammoth.  Won't even have time to rot.  Now, what about the rest?  Wouldn't want to be living on the coast.  Or even to the mountain ranges, on the down-ocean/sea side.

Interior?  I... think the interior, those areas within the outer mountain ranges, should be okay.  Probably.  But, remember.  Utah, at one time, was mostly underwater.  Though even that, I think, was a valley over, to my west?  I... think so.  Still, a new ocean... or sea... that close?  And the East and West Coat cities gone?

But it would be global.  How things would settle, what would simply be washed away, or then flooded?  Geography, angle of movement, speed/velocity of movement, time of year (freezing temps might be a boon, if in place to start, or not?).  There is simply no telling.

Oh, I'd... have to seen this happening more often, more frequent, by far.  But... a sign may be given in singularity?  Or... maybe the signs are everywhere, and being ignored.  Or, somehow, even enhanced.  Who knows what sort of weapons and systems they have developed.  And... the powers that be?  Want most people gone.  Really, really.

Bedtime.  Yes.  A few olives, some electrolytes, and then some sleep.  Goodnight.
