Yes I have researched them. Though I dont really see them as unexplained. What kind of people just assume they are made by aliens when man is more
than capable to produce these things.
How do you explain them starting out as simple but getting more complex over time?
If you'd thoroughly researched crop circles, you would also know that most are attached to a ley line somewhere, often one edge;
You'd know that if the circle appears in a more mature crop the stalk nodes are bent,not broken, and the crop is find for harvesting - if it appears
when the stalks are young, they often do not grow to maturity;
You'd also know that on some circles the following year(s) afterwards remnants of the crop circle show through because the ground isn't neutral
anymore;
You'd also have to calculate the thousands of circles of recent decades all over the globe - most aren't documented for obvious reasons, many in
England are missed too.
You'd know that they give of an electrical charge of some kind (can't remember what Colin called it - )
You'd also think if they were all man-made that some would have been heard and seen doing them- in the dark - yet coming out with phenomenally
intricate patters without error;
They get more and more complicated, I believe, because to understand them is like learning to read - first you learn the alphabet, the vowels, cat,
dog, etc. until you get to complicated research papers... which is where the circles are now - complicated and intricate and mostly unknown meanings -
These things are the size of football fields or bigger - people made them all? We're not so gifted....
Research Colin Andrews work - he was an engineer in the British government who set out to 'explain' the circles way back when and couldn't -
eventually getting so involved with them he left the government and did circle research exclusively for years. He has an engineer's mind and used it
to analyze, record and document circles year after year.
*sigh* But alas, Doug and Dave's confession worked very well - if they made one circle, they must 'all' be hoaxes....
