Designs which "mysteriously" appear overnight in fields of standing grain crops. Fringe theories have unseen forces of nature creating them, others believe in UFOs' involvement. Prevailing current sane theory says that pranksters create them using a flat board slung from rope which they step on, pushing it forward to lay the stalks down without breaking them.

There's tons of stuff on the 'Net about these...

ive read a lot of stuff about them on the net. a flat board couldnt do some of these things, not in one night without a lot of people drawing attention to themselves. but... at the same time thats the only thing that seems to make sense. i believe in aliens but not in the way of them just making crop circles and us not studying it frantically.
there is a high amount of maths involved in some of them that doesnt seem like anyone with that intelligence would use it to do pranks.

they just seem like something with a very VERY easy answer that no one has just came out and said.

everyone knows wrestling is fake, so how can something as big as crop circles still be a mystery?

Because people won't accept that it's a prank.

It's been proven time and time again that these things can be accomplished by several bored college students, a few 2x4s, and some rope. Most of the designs are pre-designed and can be accomplished in one night. And now with GPS available to anyone, these things can be as complex as they want.

Now you see, this one's real. Some horney alien lookin' to score!

The latest theory I've read is that they are created with microwaves but not by whom or why. They've proved in the lab that microwave will cause the plant stems to bend precisely as they do in crop circles. :nuts:

Billy 09-07-2005 07:28 PM

Is it real?

lumberjim 09-07-2005 07:30 PM

they're real. the question lies in WHO made them......aliens or prankster humans?

do you see them in china?

So it's not aliens, it's cellphone towers?

i happened to notice one the other day at our old airport when i was leaving the traffic pattern. if i go there anytime this weekend i'll try and remember to snap a pic....

Anything that you can draw out on graph paper, you can render in a grain field. All you need is time and the motivation. As far as mathematical meanings, well...if we can figure out that they *have* mathematical meaning, then someone who understands that can create them that way.

I'd like to think that some are really created by mysterious agencies from the Netherworld, and it seemed like such a great idea, that we ape-people started imitating it.

So Satan sucks the stalks down from beneath the ground?

Kagen4o4 09-09-2005 07:10 PM

its not just the patterns of the crop circles. its how some of the storks or whatever are almosted braided one after the other in some of them.

Elspode 09-11-2005 12:17 AM

I just watched something tonight that addresses this. It seems that braided stalks are the work of the Little People, like faeries and such.

Seriously, that's what the movie said. Not about crop circles specifically, but it seems to make as much sense as UFO's.

Billy Budapest 10-08-2005 08:25 PM

crop circles
 
Has anyone thought to ask the crops?

That's why you always throw your dishwater in the yard. Keeps the Little People away and your foodstuffs unbraided. Hmmm... another reason not to trust the French, braided bread, must have a pact with the faeries.
