HUGH AUCHINCLOSS BROWN

'Hugh Auchincloss Brown' (23 December 1879 – 19 November 1975) was an electrical engineer best known for advancing a theory of catastropic pole shift. Brown argued that accumulation of ice at the poles caused recurring tipping of the axis in cycles of approximately 7 millennia. Brown argued that a shift was demonstrably imminent, and suggested the use of nuclear explosions to break-up the ice to forestall catastrophe.
