Here’s another entry in our series on things that just couldn’t be related to insurance.
In the event you don’t know what crop circles are, these are frequently ornate designs of immense dimension that “appear” in farmer fields. According to Wikipedia, they were first noticed in England in the 1970′s. Many people associate these phenomena with corn fields, but they have been found in wheat, barley, canola, rye, linseed and soy fields as well.
Although there is lots of controversy over the origins of crop circles, and whether or not aliens participate in this activity. Wikipedia notes that two men, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley, have been making crop circles in England since 1978 using planks, rope, hats and wire as their only tools. (Doesn’t fairly sound high tech, does it?)
So, do crop circles reveal a higher intelligence than human? Or are they just the result of artistic pranksters? You decide; this video clip shows a compilation of numerous crop circles around the world.
