He was discussing the difference between true north and magnetic north. Then, he sort of offhand mentioned that when one gets north far enough, the compass no longer points at true north.
Must of been kinda cold, wherever that was.

If you travel north you will eventually stop going north and start heading south.
But if you head West, no matter how far you travel you will still be heading West. Same with heading East.
Kind of interesting.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
