Title: Crop circles
Post by: Konrad on Thu, 03 February 2011, 21:39:56
Is it just me, or are crop circles (http://www.google.ca/images?hl=en&q=crop%20circles) becoming much more elaborate and sophisticated each year?
I suppose there must be a certain amount of prestige associated with having your crops "mysteriously" patterned into higher-quality circles. It seems our hyperadvanced alien visitors are constantly making great leaps and breakthroughs in crop circle technology.
I'd get those Mythbusters geeks to debunk it, but I don't wanna register for any more spam in my inbox. Somebody else can do it.

Some of those are actually pretty impressive.

Perhaps it's a sign that farming becomes more and more boring over time ?

Indeed some of those are impressive and quite beautiful.
The funniest one I saw so far was the Microsoft Windows logo. XD

The old windows logo with the tail is much better than the ugly XP one I think.

I'm a bit surprised the usual "debate" about crop circles hasn't fired up here. Apparently geekhackers just aren't interested unless perhaps alien keyboards are involved.
