Until someone can demonstrate how a pole reversal could possibly occur while respecting the laws of physics — pole reversals are only conjecture (at best).
Observation always trumps model. You must know that. If we observe evidence of magnetic pole reversals, and it conflicts with our understanding of the laws of physics, then it is our understanding of the laws that must be in error, not our observations.
Joe, this is what I have referred to as Rathergate science
Heh, what's funny about "Rathergate" was that CBS "framed" a guilty man.
