Off topic here, but these crop circle threads are getting way out of hand, and lets face it, most people around here dismiss the crop circle subject as anything to do with aliens......because it is just plain silly.
The crop circle crowd represent, at least to me, the lengths one will travel in order to support your faith.
I think these crop circle threads should go in another forum, the same way enough of us spoke up about those silly reptilian threads and got those moved.

How do we know their transmissions WERE NOT sent? Did we picked it up, amongst the multitude of radio transmissions in the airwaves, as well as the low level of scientific advancement we were when Carl Sagan sent the first transmission?

Um, no there is not. If there was "very serious" educated "people looking into crop circles" the debate would be over.
But this "amazing phenomenon" is so ridiculous that you would be hard pressed to find somebody with over have a brain actually investing the time and money to prove what is already known by anybody who doesn't treat this idiocy like a religion.
Go ahead, list the "very serious" researchers and their repeatable and conclusive measurements that lead you to believe in this crap. Word to the wise, you better understand the measurements they are taking, how they take them, what equipment they are using and how they interpret their "observations". But I can't tell in advance that you don't have this basic understanding, otherwise you would not be defending such an absurdly foolish conclusion.
And any attempt by someone such as myself to persuade you using facts, logic, reason and common sense would only be met with some other ludicrous accusation or bending of the measurements and observational conclusions to fit what you so desperately need to believe in (desperate enough to ignore the facts, lol)
SO you guys go ahead, patrol the "internet" and you will find thousands of places tat reinforce your beliefs, you wont find thousands of places that spell reality out for you...well, because in this day and age I guess people are of the understanding that there is no need to spend time educating folks that believe in things like this because they wouldn't understand the reasoning and facts behind it, they would only say "Yeah so, this guy says such and such, and he has been on the crop circle bandwagon for longer then you were born" or something like that.
It is impossible to argue crop circles with those that believe man can't make them, because in order to even foster that ignorant belief it is a good indication that they lack the intelligence to understand something that would lead them to believe otherwise.
Go ahead, flame with your ignorance all you want. I look forward to coming back here YEAR AFTER YEAR to demonstrate the COMPLETE lack of anything serious that supports you desired conclusion.
You crop circle fanatics can keep believing 2+2=5 all you want, the rest of us should move on to things that have the potential of bearing real fruit.

I hope your next post will be of significance to that of contributory level to the topic, and less on individuals, or you may be perceived as disrupting a discussion.

Crop circles appear all over the world, in varying sizes and designs.
Originally posted by Dave157
However, to assume that all of these are man made and left anonymous, for the sheer fact to confuse and baffle people. Well that's just silly
Originally posted by Dave157
The simple fact is, are crop circles impossible to replicate?, no
Are all crop circles throughout the world, made by man? i don't think so.

I usually stay away from these threads due to the lack of vision by the believers.
There is nothing that men cannot duplicate in 8 hrs of darkness.

Could you point us to where we can learn more about the Ogbourne formation that doesn't require viewing a two-hour film? It's a go-go world and my appointment book is overflowing.
