So what can we do about the shift? Not a darn thing! So why worry about it? Make adjustments as required and live on.
Sorry but a pole Shift is likely
and your wrong Chadwickus the Earth's Magnetic of the north has never moved liked this before.

Would you elaborate a little please (if for no other reason, to get my mind off this for a moment)?
The earth generates its own magnetic field which periodically flips polarity over thousands of years. Paleomagnetism, the magnetic field and polarity found in ancient rock strata shows this flip has occurred throughout the history of our planet. Scientists report that such a polarity reversal may happen in the near future as the strength of earth’s magnetic field has been declining. Sometimes the field completely flips. The north and the south poles swap places. Such reversals, recorded in the magnetism of ancient rocks, are unpredictable. They come at irregular intervals averaging about 300,000 years; the last one was 780,000 years ago. Are we overdue for another? No one knows.
baffle them with bullchit!
Maps are useless right now anyway because if I recall correctly, .Chile earthquake knocked us off kilter

Seems I misread you, no there is no way of knowing exactly what will happen.
Then what does: The Federal Aviation Administration required the runway designation change to account for what a National Geographic News report described as a gradual shift of the Earth's magnetic pole at nearly 40 miles a year toward Russia because of magnetic changes in the core of the planet mean?
