crop circles..has anyone been...

i caught the closing moments of a story on the O’Reilly factor about crop circles. i got to thinking. why hasn’t anyone been caught making crop circles? the latest ones look like they would have to be done by a large very well coordinated team(especially because they are done overnite,correct?). but if that were the case seems likely they would be caught. and they would trample surrounding crops. i dont believe ET did it. but it begs the question. how did they do it?(people)

there’s a book by Jim Schnabel which talks about making crop circles. It’s a very entertaining read as well. I’m braindead so I can’t remember the actual title.

I was watching a program on TLC a few years ago and they were talking about this. And this couple of blokes who said they did this often invited the camera crew to come and film them make one, at night, with time-lapse photography. So they went and did this and spent hours making this ellaborate one only to be caught just as they were finishing. I think it’s just that thee ones don’t make the news since they don’t excite the believers and more non-believers don’t really pay much attention to this sort of stuff so that it doesn’t make any headlines anywhere. Except maybe the local 2 sheet paper “2 Local Yahoos damage Farmer Bill’s Crop!”
