I noticed it last winter when I headed out one afternoon, to run some errands; a little after 1pm. I remember it so clear because as I was heading home--with the sun to my face--had I not known otherwise [knowing I hadn't left the house until after lunch] I would have sworn it was barely sunrise. Though over the Southern horizon.
It was quite unsettling. |

You know that if the amplitude of the processional wobble increased then it would explain BOTH of 'the sun's too far north' and 'the sun's too far south' threads.
Looking back through history there seems to be precedent that this has happened before... woolly mammoths in the arctic, ancient climates much different than they are now, etc. |

I hear this trend will continue until around Dec 21 when it will start to reverse and the days get longer again.
It's also several degrees cooler than it was last July as well. Where will it all end? One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. |

I think they're completely out of touch with nature, and have been their entire life, and don't even know it and think they are in touch with nature.
I think they never leave the house, or the car, and the few times they do, they never look up.
Ordinary observations about the sun, moon, sky, weather, and behavior of animals, come to them completely out of left field, like all of a sudden they're on this brand new planet of their own.
They're the same kinds of people who start threads about "Seagulls in Kansas! OMG what is this world coming to!" "Crows are flocking near my house - what should I do?" LOL |

And, as predicted, the 'sun is too far south' threads ramp up to full speed as always happens this time of year.
I invite you to do a search on GLP for all posts that contain this subject. They will go back for years.
Just like the summertime 'the sun is too far north', the 'moon is in the wrong place', the 'that can't be Venus/Saturn in the sky', the 'what is that bright flashing colorful light on the horizon, it just can't be just a star' threads, ad nauseum.
Oh, BTW, Venus is due back in the evening sky soon, so be prepared for the 'that bright light can't be Venus' threads, since most of the people here don't get up early enough to see it in the early morning sky, where it was for months.

I can't say that I totally believe the whole earth wobble makes sense to me as the possible explanation. But I do know there is the Autumnal Equinox and the Winter Solstice back again. And then there is that which goes beyond the norm. I'm saying the witnessing of a midday sun that alarming too low on the horizon, it not right.
Other people are noticing. And still others find it necessary to drag them down. |

I am not trying to drag anybody down...but if you are going to make a statement that comes from faulty research, then I will speak up so others, who also do not take the time to research these things in depth, will not be swept away in error.

It's good notice things about nature you weren't aware of before. But you should be amazed, not suspicious about who or what is behind it.
If you measured the position of the sun, you'd find out it's exactly where it's supposed to be.
There are other things we should be very wary about. Why so many wars? Why do 24,000 people starve every day while the fattest person alive weighs 1,200 pounds? Why do you have to work a crap job everyday? Why don't we really *meet* each other? Ask the right questions. This is where the media and so-called culture brought us. Zombies, Sheep.

I think you are right on. Those who smash down threads like this immediately are likely trying to get others to not pay attention.
It is nearly 11:00 am and the shadows are quite long here. |

i live in Canada. It has been pretty warm here this year!! New York University, have discovered evidence for very high energy gamma rays emitting from a narrow band at the equator of the Milky Way. These gamma ray levels mark the highest energies ever detected from the Galaxy....
That is where we are headin' |
