Also, to answer the original question - to figure out if a pole shift occurred, you must have some solid reference of north on the ground, like the alignment of a couple big stones, or a mountain peak that you can align to. Then find the north star. If its not where it supposed to be, you know a pole shift occurred.

I don't get it. If we experienced a polar shift, we would be rotating on a different axis, so the North star would no longer be "The center of the record player", so why would you need a ground reference if you were taking long-exposure photos or film? You would see it when you looked at the exposure.
