Re: Why do the British keep making crop circles?
the exact same techniques would be used to draw those patterns on a piece of paper with a pen, just on a smaller scale....angle and distance is all you need....


So you can prove it was "Civil Engineering Students", year after year, making these patterns in fields?

So drawing patterns on a piece of paper is the same as making these field patterns?

"Angle and distance is all you need"? MY, you seem to have an agenda here. You know it is not possible. We will await your proof.

Re: Why do the British keep making crop circles?
So, these "Civil Engineering Students" formed these patterns, in differing farmers fields, and never got noticed or detected, by the farmer, or maybe a dog, and they never videoed the event?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 499665


Who said they never videod it?

As for the 'farmer', maybe they are in on it, eh?

They sure do like to belly up to the mic when asked about these 'mysterious' circles...And they get an endless stream of sight-seers that spend money in the local economy...Lets not even mention that the circles happen over and over, year after year, in the same fields, owned by the same farmers...

I challenge anyone to make any of these formations, in broad daylight, taking as much time as they need.

You cannot.

Evidence found within crop circles, compared to samples outside the circle. Do boards and rope cause these things to happen?

Yes. and the farmers all lose about ten stone each year so that they can walk over the fields making crop circles without crushing or splitting one stalk with their boots.

Re: Why do the British keep making crop circles?
People do not make the intricate crop circles. They have yet to produce a full length video of them making a crop circle of intricate design.

I triple dare anyone to show me a full length video of them making one. They cant because they dont.

But go on ...show me the video >>>LOL ...bet you cant. IF they did make such crop circles they would plaster the video of them making one all over the net but they dont have them.

haaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!

Re: Why do the British keep making crop circles?
all it takes is a little surveying skill, and some time...they all are based on arcs and lines....to make a circle, one fastens the post in the center, pays out the rope to a predetermined length, and using it (the rope) as a limit of distance(pulling it taut)crushes the grain down using the board, until the point of origin is returned to....by using a compass on the post, one can then lay out where to start and stop the interior details....by having the rope marked for length, and determining the angle, a little geometry is all thats needed to form those patterns....just because you are too lazy to do such things, doesnt make it impossible, by any stretch of the imagination....of course, it's even easier with a transit,and a theodolite...probably civil engineering students......any more assininine questions?

Then it should be easily duplicated in broad daylight, on a field, given as much time as needed.

Yet, it cannot be done.

No, I would not try to duplicate things that I know I cannot.

I still do not see who is making a profit off of these formations.

A farmer is interested in selling his crop; not making sure someone buys a burger at the local McDonalds. He does not profit from crop formations.

Again, I would ask you to show us all how it is done. Given all day, all tools, any help you needed, please, just reproduce one of these complicated formations.

Just one. Please?

Explaining and doing are two entirely different things. Government shill sites like "circlemakers" are there to convince people like you that there's a prosaic explanation and people like you swallow it hook line and sinker. To say that at least one of these circle making teams would'nt make a video and post it on youtube is too absurd for words.

But you claimed that these formations were made by "Civil Engineering Students". They would not be making a profit off of these formations.

So, are you saying that the local farmers/residents made these formations for profit, (which they do not profit from), or are they made by "Civil Engineering Students", who also would not profit from these formations?

Please elaborate.
