Cool. I wish there was an aerial picture of it.

I did take some pictures - I'll see if I can find and post them. With the advanced technology of the aliens, I wonder why we don't see 'forest circles"?

If I knew then what I know now then I would know more now than I know.

Granted that "croppies" are usually referring to are the more elaborate designs. Ones that are obviously the work of sentient beings (ie bored teenagers).

Since when does anyone view "bored teenagers" as "sentient beings"?

Do you really think the crop-stuff is pure hog-wash, Valiant, old boy?
