Undeniable Fact: Pole Position

Although more difficult to detect, magnets have not only a north and south pole, but also an east and west pole. Interestingly, because the Earth is a sphere, its east and west poles are constantly changing.

I have seen magnetic currents before, there are clearly no east and west poles. Although it is true that the north and south poles of earth have reversed themselves many times in the past.

The East and West poles are electrostatic, Delphin, you need a a comb and a paperclip and to detect them.
