absolutely amazing
yeah... why are these circles popping up only recently? i don't think they were around in the 70s or 80s or earlier. then in the mid 90s someone publishes some pictures, some guys come forward with how they did it, the internet just happens to expand vastly during that same time and it's suddenly raining crop circles around the planet! these people are artists - some very good - but nothing more.
Crop circles were not known prior to 1970, apart from the one reported exception of the Tully, Australia Saucer Nest of 1966. Crop circles first appeared in the UK in the 1970's, starting with simple circular patterns and developing over time into huge and complex geometric formations. In 1991 two elderly landscape painters named Doug Bower and Dave Chorley confessed that they had been making crop circles in English grain fields since the 1970's after reading about the Tully, Australia Saucer Nest of 1966. The pair demonstrated how they did it for a film crew and told how they had devised the idea over a pint or two at their local pub. It would appear that the Tully, Australia Saucer Nest of 1966 is the earliest reported crop circle, although it is not what may be recognised today as a typical crop circle.

Actually one popped up in 1966 first known one I believe to be associated with crop circles.

Great thread and video. Me too I am one of the few who thinks that something good will happen in 2012. Not a pole shift, but a paradigm shift in the human conscience.
I do believe that we are on the verge of stepping into a new era that will change people's way of thinking.
I do not believe in an armagedon scenario, the human race is too resilient and adaptive to get extinct. No matter what happens, the human race will find a way to survive even after a doomsday scenario.
I hate to be the cynic.. but by 2012 most people on Earth will be wishing for Armageddon. The US will be in complete collapse by end of 2009 resulting in widespread global turmoil and war (some of which will be nuclear by 2012). Public debt for Americans has hit 100% GDP roughly 24.5 trillion in debt on the shoulders of Americans. No country can recover from such debt which is now increasing exponentially as the economy declines in kind. I urge anyone with funds and the means to migrate to remote areas where you can survive (for example the South Island of New Zealand). Your window to migrate is roughly 8 months.
