You're not talking about those ridiculous "planet-altering" crustal shifts, the kind where the guy thought that the entire crust of the planet shifted on top of the mantle by 90 degrees, right?
What a loon he was. *laugh*

Matthew K, you might want to take this to the Homework section of YA.
If you want to find the information for yourself, wikipedia is always a good unbiased place to look.
