A guest talks about Crop Circles

Thanks for posting that annestacey, that sounds like the one I mentioned earlier. I need to get an update first so I'll check it out later.

Thanks for putting our questions to your guest Ross, I'll be most interested to hear the responses on Wednesday.

Re. the question of esoteric symbols - aye many of them are, but we have had other stuff as well - possible representations of DNA, the solar system, etc. It would be interesting to look more closely at the proportion and sequence of appearance of these different subjects and how the symbols may be grouped together. Some of the more obvious esoteric symbols, such as the Kabbalistic tree of life, do tend to sugest fakery purely because they're such obvious esoteric symbols - but I don't know the details of their appearance and haven't seen them on the ground, so I can't really judge. I'm just speaking on this topic as the average person on the street, so to speak.

Anyhow, I did do a little browsing the other day, and I came across the Circlemakers website - www.circlemakers.org - and I see that they did this thing where they posted up the plan for a cropcircle before they did it, them filmed themselves doing it, then opened it to the public as a kind of proof thing. See www.circlemakers.org/advancewarning.html Thing is, if you look at the pattern that they opted to create for this, it is a really simple one, one which might look vaguely complex on the ground but which would actually be easy to create. Yeah, they completed it in three hours, with simple equipment and no lights, well yeah - I could probably have done that with a couple of helpers, some planks and a knotted rope - it's just two series of concentric circles centred on adjacent points so that the rings cross eachother. Sorry, but I don't see what this proves. I might be more sympathetic if they had recreated the DNA double-helix one, then I might be more prepared to believe that people are doing all this stuff. Also, I don't see any close up images of the reproduction of the bending rather than breaking of the crop stems, no pictures demonstrating a comparison of the finished product with that of other crop circles, no real in-depth examination and no aerial photo of it either. If you wish to prove that people are making all the crop circles, then the thing to do would be to subject a known man-made circle to the same close up examination that has been given to suspected anomalous ones and show us that they really are the same.

I don't buy the "circlemakers" claims at all. I have been to there site a couple of times. They are a bunch of paid shills, in my opinion, that is posting a bunch of stuff that I can almost guarantee you,if asked to "create" again, they couldn't do it. Just like "Doug" and "Dave."
