England's crop circle controversy
bbc ^ | 23 aUG 2021 | Daniel Stables

Although these mysterious formations have appeared worldwide, south-west England is the unlikely world capital of crop circles, baffling locals and farmers alike.

Was this the nexus for some kind of potent Earth energy? Or, terrifyingly, a target for extra-terrestrial weaponry? In this instance, something more mundane. "That's the logo of the Barge Inn down in Honeystreet," chuckled a fellow visitor, a potbellied man in a Dark Side of the Moon T-shirt. "Probably man-made, this one."

The intricacy and size of the formations, coupled with the fact that they would appear overnight, seemingly out of nowhere, baffled locals and farmers alike. In 1996, a crop circle appeared opposite Stonehenge depicting a mathematical fractal called a Julia set; a similar formation that emerged on Milk Hill in 2001 was one of the largest ever, stretching 900ft. A 2008 formation near the Iron Age hill fort of Barbury Castle required decoding by an astrophysicist, who concluded that it was a geometric representation of the first 10 digits of pi.

I never got caught up in the ‘mystery’ of these crop circles. I figured they are Eartling Made. No big deal.
If some formations were done by ET’s or Deep Earth Dwellers, so be it.

There are certain formations whose original purpose will never be known, such as Stonehenge.
Their message will remain unclear.
If the ET really want to communicate with us now, they must know better ways to do it vs drawings in the sand.

“Does that message seem to crop up more often than random chance?”

The truth is out there.
Dare to believe.

Many believe in global warming and many believe in crop circles.

And we have a good idea who most of them vote for.

They have Podcasts and many year old vids that show exactly how these things get made by the CCfakers.

Board and rope ... sticks are too small for the effect desired.
