Surely someone as aware as yourself can tell us ignorants exactly when the sun shifted...right?

I hadn't read the other thread mentioned about the sun but this is so weird. I live in the middle of the united stated (Missouri, St. Louis) and my office (rather, cubical) has a window that faces East. I've always been aware of the sun as in the morning it blinds me. This lasts until around 11 am. At which point the sun has risen enough to no longer blind me and starts its trek west. Well, a few weeks ago I noticed that the sun is coming in my space now way more from the north. Which means one of my monitors gets hit, then for a while I'm blinded. But only until 8am or so. Then the sun is so north of where it used to be that the angle of light now only hits my south wall. Something is afoot

Complete and utter poppycock --
1 - The sun doesn't shift -- it was shown long ago that the earth moves around the sun
2 - If the earth changed its position in relation to the sun there would be massive disruption in tides, massive crop failures, starvation and wars. (even more massive than I am sure people will point out - IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW) -- I am talking societal changing on an unimaginable scale.
3 - Brazillions of amateur astronomers through out the world would be wetting themselves to get on the internet to share their discovery. The orbit of the earth, the earths precession is known information that has been measured accurately for many many thousands of years. It is established set your watch to it science.
4 - Any one using a sextant to navigate -- and there are a few of us who can still do that. Would find that they were getting lost at sea, and numbers that had been used for hundreds of years would be meaningless.
These are just off the top of my head - but if the earth changed even subtly. The effects are not going to be such that you would have time to post on the internet saying that you might be noticing a difference. Hell there probably wouldn't even be an internet
So I am awe struck -- no I think I am actually gobstruck that this is a topic of converstaion.

Perhaps the planet tilts?
Lol, maybe the Earth shifted, not the sun..
I would like to see measurements to prove it has, we do know the recent Japan nuclear reactor explosions and earthquakes have tilted the planet¨s axis as have the nuclear detonation tests in history.
It could be natural it could be unnatural.
We need measurements.

Fire up Stellarium, see which constellations are where and also Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are visible in our July skies. Tonight, go out and compare the locations from Stellarium to what you actually see.
That all the stars and planets are exactly where they should be rules out the possibility of the Earth having moved.
