This article, published in Geotimes in 2003, follows up a previous article published earlier that year reporting on John Tarduno's theory that the bend in the Hawaiian-Emperor chain was caused by motion of the underlying hotspot itself. This article focuses on an alternative theory suggested by Pal Wessel that "true polar wander" may be a better explanation for the bend.
