No. It did tilt us but it was a very small fraction of what you said. Somewhere around 25 centimeters (10 inches). Barely the most minute fraction of a fraction of a degree.

Please stay on topic. Do not derail this thread with your unscientific, fairy tale, made-up, mumbo-jumbo. I would ask for you to please cite your reputable sources and their relation to the OP. Thank you.edit on 29-7-2011 by SpringHeeledJack because: grammar
The calculations also show the Japan quake should have shifted the position of Earth's figure axis (the axis about which Earth's mass is balanced) by about 17 centimeters (6.5 inches), towards 133 degrees east longitude. Earth's figure axis should not be confused with its north-south axis; they are offset by about 10 meters (about 33 feet). This shift in Earth's figure axis will cause Earth to wobble a bit differently as it rotates

You're misinterpreting things and using a biased source. Your source does verify what I said however. 25cm shift. The runways being misaligned is due to polar shift. As I previously stated, this is a natural occurrence and is not up for debate.
What is up for debate is a cataclysmic sudden shift of the magnetic poles. There is no evidence of this whatsoever and I would ask you to please cite reputable sources concurring with your viewpoint.
ETA: Please don't put out information and make it appear as if you haven't already made up your mind. You were purposely waiting to bait someone into an argument. If you already had these figures, why didn't you state that openly before pretending not to know? I was only trying to help you and clear up any misinformation or forgotten stats.edit on 29-7-2011 by SpringHeeledJack because: (no reason given)
