Default Earth's Magnetic Poles

This entry contains some interesting information I had not considered
until reading the thread, "Why the Hell...(Random Rant)"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:I...eclination.gif

Living in the Northern Hemisphere, I have maintained an awareness of the
North magnetic pole, but hadn't considered the location of the South
magnetic pole..

Look at the deflection in Africa and Europe, and the deviation at
Thailand.
