Jerry, back in the 60's I had a compass fixed to my bedroom wall. One of those JC Whitney auto compasses with the compass mounted on a gymbal that allowed it 360 degree movement. My buddies laughed at me, but over the course of a year, it actually did move!!! I was triumphant but my buddies didn't believe me. Such is life among the flat-Earthers.
