Brand new crop formations, we are not alone, we've made contact :) sw chrisAug 24, 2001, 2:01pm
Interesting... sounds like an elaborate trick made by college kids with
biology majors though... SW Chris [View Quote] wingAug 24, 2001, 3:12pm
Any halfwit with a length of chain or rope and a 2x4 can make crop circles, if the field didn't have the tram lines so convienently
located, I'd be a little less suspicious of it. A single fraternity could've created those 3 in an hour or so, assuming they had it preplanned and were coordinated by radio communication Of course, getting them out of the dorms to do it in the middle of the night would be difficult [View Quote] goober kingAug 24, 2001, 4:11pm
Either that's some pretty good photography manipulation, or the aliens
are idiots. The only difference between the Arecibo stream and the "response" was someone swapped the human figure for an alien-like figure, made the left half of the DNA strand more squiggly, and changed the telescope image to a version of the crop circle in Image 5. Everything else is exactly the same. Add that to the fact that Arecibo message was sent via radio waves, and the "response" was "burned" into an obscure hayfield. Sounds a tad implausible, don't you think? Also notice that Image 5 and Image 7 are shots of the exact same field, yet they both have different "responses" in them. And in Image 7, you can see a large horizontal gash in the field that's about the same length and position as the "response" in Image 5. Obviously someone had done Image 7 first and planned to do Image 5 at a later time. It's amazing how quick some people are to believe that, for some reason, aliens would want to bother with our planet. Are we that self-important to think that we're really *that* interesting to travel who-knows-how-many light years to mash weird pictures into hayfields? If so, then these aliens really need to find a new hobby...

its been PROVED. A group of kids gave themselves away and showed exactly how
they did it. Plus i don't think alien would come to earth an draw in out wheat fields. THats the stupidet thing i've ever heard. [View Quote] chucks partyAug 24, 2001, 5:38pm

ok for those of you that like explaining away things, tell me how people can make this formation that consists of over 400 circles to make this design? [View Quote] wingAug 24, 2001, 7:55pm
Simple, at 67 (I counted) circles to an arm, time 5 arms, plus one center circle, you get 356, and the chances of me missing a few
little circles in the single arm I counted is pretty high. [View Quote] bcgAug 25, 2001, 9:14pm
I saw a show, I think on The Learning Channel, where two guys went out in
one night and made a crop circle like the ones on that page. It looks like more work than it actually is. Maybe they will play it again sometime, it was very interesting. I think if there really is other life 'out there' they wouldn't waste their time trying to let their presence be known by making pictures in fields. If there really are 'aliens', and they were smart enough to get all the way to Earth from wherever they came from, I think they would choose a less primitive way of letting us know they were here.

These crop formations have been throughly investigated and were not there one
day and there the next, these are brand new photos and they are also working on obtaining the security camera images that surround the radio tower you see in this picture to get more clues, we shall see. But I don't think anyone could make the ones that they are now showing us with the method you described in a 16 hour period of time which is basically the time they would have to do it if the people that worked there left work at 5pm and came back at 9am the next day to find them. You say why would aliens do it, I say why would people waste the time to do it, lolol OK if you thought those were interesting, here are some that appeared over this past winter on ice too thin to walk on, another one of the many unexplained mysteries of these circle formations http://www.artbell.com/icerings.html [View Quote] goober kingAug 26, 2001, 2:58pm
The reason people do it is because it's funny to watch other people see
them and think they were made by aliens. Just goes to show the stupidity of some people... And you still never addressed the issue of why aliens would travel zillions of miles just to draw patterns in hayfields or in obscure ponds that are frozen over. Doesn't it seem just a *tad* too unbelievable to you, especially considering that most have them have been proven to be hoaxes? And as for the ice circles, did it ever occur to you that they could have been made while the ice was still thick, and they had since melted? That second one certainly seems to be the case, seeing as how the gap around the circle seems pretty big and uneven.

Look at the circles on this page. Each of them were done in one night by one man. If one man did that in one night, it would be possible for two or three people to make the complicated crop circles on the page you gave us. BCG [View Quote] chucks partyAug 26, 2001, 5:55pm
GK you watch Star Trek don't you? What is the prime directive? I'll tell, it
goes something like, they are not allowed to interfere with us or our development but to let us evolve natuarally, correct. So you say why would they make crop circles, they make crop circles because crop circles are biodegradable or the melt in the case of the ones in the ice and do not do anything to change the prime directive. That being interfereing in our natural evolution. They are able to say, hey we are here without hurting the prime directive, and you think they just got here or something, they have been here watching us all along, learning about their own past I imagine by watching ours. You assume so much, I have actually seen a UFO, have you? Well if you haven't you will never know the impact it has on changing your whole outlook on believing we are not alone here and what I just told you is 100% correct. [View Quote] kahAug 26, 2001, 7:41pm
oh, great, now Star Trek guys are coming! Get down to reality, huh? Anyway
if they didn't wanna interfere, they wouldn't have made crop circles at all! LMAO! KAH [View Quote] goober kingAug 26, 2001, 7:57pm
Earth to Chuck! Come in, Chuck! Loss of reality imminent!
You *do* realize that Star Trek is science *fiction*, correct? There is no "Prime Directive" and there are no aliens. (at least, not in this neck of the universal woods) The truth of the matter is that the vast majority of anything alien related, whether it be UFO sightings, crop circles, or even abductions, have all been proven to *not* have anything to do with aliens. They have all had a scientific or human explanation for them. As far as the "facts" about aliens are concerned, I believe it is *you* who are assuming too much. But hey, I'm just a narrow-minded person unwilling to believe in such things, right? Perhaps you could share with us your little UFO experience and help us "see the light", as it were...

Fascinating. I had no idea aliens watched Star Trek, nor even that they adhered to a "Prime Directive" that is a fictional creation of a human. Tell me, do these 'aliens' have transporters and phasers and quantum torpedoes as well? chucks party said: "You assume so much." You do as well. Since you obviously cannot explain the crop circles or other 'evidence' of extraterrestrial life, you automatically assume that it is extraterrestial life. Crop circles have already been proven to be hoaxes, but die-hard alien fans can't give it up. I suppose you still think that popular 'alien autopsy' was real too. chucks party said: "I have actually seen a UFO, have you?" I don't know whether Goob has seen one or not, but I have. But what is a UFO? an Unidentified Flying Object. Key word: Unidentified. Just because you cannot identify it doesn't mean its from some extraterrestrial life. And believe me, it has not changed my whole outlook on life. chucks partyAug 26, 2001, 9:15pm
Well all I can say is, we shall see, lol Unless you have seen a UFO you don't
know. I was skeptical somewhat too before I actually saw one. It was a sphere, it moved in a perfectly straight line and glowed purple on a perfectly clear summer nite. It was very far away but I don't think it was further away than the moon, but it was very far from Earth. I have never seen anything like it before or since. If you saw how fast this thing was going and the fact that it was a perfect sphere with no tail at all you would believe too, trust me, lol But until then all I can say is, keep looking up :) Oh and 1 more thing I find fascinating is why the government blacks out reports of UFO sightings and information they have aquired, why are they unwilling to give us the truth and act like there is some kind of coverup going on. If there was really nothing there what would they have to hide then? kahAug 26, 2001, 9:39pm
I saw a UFO once... but I think it was more in the direction of a STEALTH
fighter or a jet fighter... KAH [View Quote] kahAug 26, 2001, 9:42pm
very far away, but not further than the moon? uh, I bet it was just a
halusination! often I "see" things nearly right outside of my angle of view, but these things are creations of my minds because I can't really see stuff in that direction... oh, and purple of all colours? had you been drinking? this sounds like the space version of a pink elephant... KAH [View Quote] sw chrisAug 27, 2001, 1:55pm
And then we bring out the nukes! :D Just playing devil's advocate here,
but perhaps they don't want to make direct contact for that very reason. Then again they'd probably just ignore our planet anyways... Crop circle phenomena are an illogical way to communicate, Captain. SW Chris [View Quote] sw chrisAug 27, 2001, 1:56pm

Some people believe these UFO sightings are really not UFOs at all, but
rather manifestations of the spirit world. Why they become visible to the human eye at times like this is odd. And then the reason the government is likely blacking out all UFO reports is probably because of their top secret research facility Area 51. Odds indicate that scientists there have been experimenting with new aviation technology for the past 40 years or so. I'm pretty sure that they don't want the Islamic Jihad or Saddam Hussein to get ahold of one of those babies, so the safest thign to do is black it out. Now, consider the case of Salina, Kansas in the 1950's or 60's. I can't remember which decade. :\ Interstate 70. One night a strange set of blue and white streaks move quickly across the sky from the west horizon to dead center over the overpass of I-70 and I-135 near Salina, KS. All vehicles in that area go dead, presumably from Electro-magnetic pulse. They hover there for a moment, still emitting the EMP. Cars won't start. But then they streak off toward the east horizon and disappear in 10 seconds flat. The drivers can start their cars again. So are they UFOs, spirits, or a secret government project? With a truly open mind to these phenomena, you will see that all are equally likely, simply because the event gives no proof to any of these explainations. This is not the case with crop circles. People have proven that man can make crop circles. So that makes the hypothesis of crop circles being man made more likely than aliens creating them. Hmm.. maybe I should change my name to Spock. :) Yours ever logically, SW Spock. [View Quote] kahAug 27, 2001, 2:47pm
heh, obviously they've left Area 51, maybe still some guards in the
perimeters... why? because of all the fun they had testing nukes before they built the research facilities, and now nuke stuff is coming out of the ground and the scientists sometimes had to flee because of it, so they've probably built a new secret research facility, maybe inside a mountain this time so no one has fun taking satelitte pictures of it... and a load of UFO observations in the area was actually just transport planes with scientists... KAH [View Quote] chucks partyAug 27, 2001, 4:05pm
Yes but they are also proving this one picture I have shown here with over 400
circles in it would have been impossible #1 to make at night without sophistacted laser type technology that only a limited amount of people would have beacuse it is very exspensive to buy, then to lay it out just the center stakes alone for the ropes would take an entire nite in itself, it just isn't feasibly possible to do in a 16 hour period of time, that is not fiction that is not man made, that is fact. Then to get it as perfect as it is and making 400+ circles, you would need an army of people out in that field and the presence of people being there would probably be overwhelmingly obvious. They are finding out that these plants have also had electric charges put thru them which started at the base of the plant to bend it then traveled up the entire length of the plant, they are guestimating that these crop circles, the authentic ones are taking literally seconds to make. I've done the reading on it, have you? [View Quote] kahAug 27, 2001, 6:50pm
ok, go believe that aliens that have fun making crop circles and follow Star
Trek rules are coming to Earth, but I tell you, they put people into mental institutions for less... you said you've read about this, but how do you know that's true? have you been at the site and studyed the plants for yourself? and lets look at another thing like this, Nessie, the seaworm thingy in Loch Ness: a photo from many, many decades ago with a dinosaur like creature with a long neck sticking up of the water (look at illustration below) was regarded as a real photo, as it was a respected dentist that had taken it... but just before he died, he told the world that it simply was a hoax after all, it was a figurine or something mounted on a toy submarine... this is truly just another case like it, maybe they did it while those other guys were watching them, and did it just to take some pics, and it was all a lovely little hoax... your are simply naive if you believe in it without further evidence... this is what the Nessie pic looked like: _ / / ((/ /)) ( hope you see what I mean) KAH nornnyAug 27, 2001, 7:30pm
Actually, I heard once that the secret society of pranksters (forgot the
name of it, it's kinda like the Skulls and Bones at Yale) in many colleges, the ones that toilet paper "important" statues of great figures in the campus, or spraypaint story high paintings of Jesus high on crack and liking it on religious buildings in one night, have also made crop circles down in the midwest to tease a few folks. :) Got me if it's true, but there's the army, and considering it only takes 1 or 2 hours to make the circles the guys on TLC did, it couldn't be hard. They're not the circle designs that are just made with a compass, but you never know the intelligence of a few drunk college frat pranksters. They're out there...somewhere....lol. Nornny [View Quote] chucks partyAug 27, 2001, 8:13pm
Sorry Nornny, that ain't going to fly with the scientists and researchers that
have investigated them. Just as you may think College students did this and supposedly have gotten better at it or something so have the people that actually do the scientific investigative work in the field. They would know the difference. Just as the investigative people after a fire can go into any bldg now and find out exactly what started it, it comes from expierience and knowing what to look for.
