Now, compasses on the other hand... And we'd have to name a South Star so we wouldn't get lost in the Northern Hemisphere :hmm:.

Simply, I do not know if the earth's poles may switch anytime soon. It has happened before, though, and that seem to have been no pleasant experiences for dear old Earth's surface. If it happens now again, and so soon in the future, I think there is little or nothing we could do abut it anyway, and cannot avoid to suffer whatever is to be suffered from it. Since there is nothing we could do about preventing it, we could stay calm and stoic and wait and see without panicking and without going hysteric.

Oh, and the 2012 thing is a load of hoo-haa. The magnetic pole will not shift. Sunspot activity will not fry our satelites. Our atmosphere will not be stripped away due to massive particle bombardment emminating from the center of the galaxy. You'll still be able to complain about the rigged BCS ranking on 1 January.
