And there is the 2010 conference already planned, where they will talk about all the 2010 circles, that are YET to appear. Now what will happen if NO CIRCLES appear in 2010. What will all the crop circle people talk about? Geez, I hope they get Circles.
Conference2010
Trade Fair offering:
Crop Circle Books and Films

Now, do you think they really, really, really need circles to appear. Because I do. Do you think that people will be motivated to make these circles?
Because I do.
Thanks for acknowledging that, Yes we do know these things. [edit to add]. Not only do we know humans are capable, we have evidence that they do actually make circles.

I agree with you, we . . .
know that humans exist and that they are capable of creating crop-circles.
Really! Show me them. I don't know they exist for certain, I admit that this is not significant, so if you could simply point them out I will integrate this evidence into my approach to the explanation of CC's.
But do we not also . . .
know that ET's exist
See, this is where the argument breaks down.
and that they should be capable of creating crop-circles?
No I am not.
Are you saying there is no chance that any crop circles have been made by ETs?
I an glad there is somewhere we agree, because I will also politely disagree to some extent.

I'm not claiming that crop circles are ET in origin.
I'm saying that it seems rather foolish to conclude that none of them are the result of ET's.
Since you aren't claiming that, we are in agreement.
Now . . .
As for whether or not we know ET's exist.
If you do not know this, there is probably nothing i can say or show you that could convince you otherwise. It's the type of thing you have to know for yourself.
I would never expect anyone to believe me, because i never believed anyone untill i knew it for myself.

I think it is also rather foolish to conclude that any circles are made by ET's based on the fact we have absolutely no evidence, at all that they are made by ET's.
That this trend in a lack of evidence if fact transpires over the entire history of CC's.
I can not even begin to imagine how one would even introduce the idea that it is ET's.
Can you?
Other than someone injected it as an entity to explain CC's.
What is the rationale that would direct you or anyone else to the thought that it may be ET's making CC's.
Think of it this way, why are other "unexplained phenomena" not explained by an ET hypothesis?
Ghosts could be ET' technology that is sending us a message!
Miracles as claimed by individuals could be ET.
Religious visions could be inspired by ET's.
Big foot may be ET.
Can you see what I mean.
Yes, it's weak inductive reasoning.
What is it about CC' that states this is phenomena is ALIEN.
That is could only be done by aliens.
Is it just inserting an "entity" to explain the gaps?
I agree on all accounts. I was merely expressing that i'm open to the possibility they are made by ET's, even though i don't believe they are. Simply because "you never know".
I don't think it is foolish to conclude that none of the circles are made by ET's. Because there is nothing to base a conclusion on, that even just some are made by ET's.
Whilst I will not rule it out as being possible, to make a conclusion that some are made by CC's seems to defy logic.
absolutely
Mate, as I said, I do not know for certain and I am honest in pointing out that my personal ignorance or lack of knowledge relating the existence of ET's are insignificant.
And conversely, your personal belief is equally insignificant in relation to pointing out the reality of Alien existence being true to me.
oh i'm not saying you should believe that, i'm just saying you should perhaps be a little more open to the idea. I mean, if tomorrow morning you walk outside and a 40 ft wide flying saucer zooms over your house at 700 mph less than 3,000 feet away from you, what would you think then? wouldn't that make you think twice?
As I said, I don't think it is unreasonable to ask why I should believe that some CC's are caused by Aliens.
yeah, you too.
I accept your belief and respect it.
I express a belief that all CC's are man made, I show why I believe that, I support that belief.
Thank you for your thoughts.
You are pardoned.

Pardon me, but YOUR argument is flawed.
Obviously we don't agree on that, as my hypothesis attributes the entire phenomena to humans. But I will let you play for a little while.
In the UNIVERSE of Crop circles there are subsets that are of both human origin and unknown origin. Now, human origin CCs is a very large subset/circle and unknown origin would be much smaller, that much we can agree on.
Yes we can make that assumption. In fact your whole argument is assumed, only my hypothess makes assumptions, but it is based on evidence.
Now, what we can also assume is that there is some overlapping of these two circles (that is to say, some 'unknown' CCs will surely be shown to be of human origin).
Yes, BUT it is not flawed as I use a HYPOTHESIS to explain the "unknown". I DO NOT IGNORE IT "unknown" or try to include it into one set of known.
YOUR CONTENTION, however - which is incorrect - is that because you've only seen evidence of humans creating crop circles that the entire group/subset/circle of unknown CCs MUST be contained entirely within the human crop circle subset.
I don't make an interpolation from the unknowns. I have a hypothesis that is accounting for the unknowns, BUT
YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS INTERPOLATION!
I don't consider assumptions at all in my hypothesis.
ESPECIALLY, WHEN YOU CONSIDER...
Time frame is based on testimony. Design has showed a progression from simple to complex(how human is that)
too many of the more complex designs and limited time to create them
cannot be explained by human intervention/involvement!

Just for the sake of (your own) argument, and my peace of mind: I ask you to please submit ANY video evidence of any of the more complex crop circles being done by humans (you know the ones).

ok folks, I've just come across this researcher (richard hall) from Richplanet.net.
he's an engineer and troubleshooter by background, so he has a fair idea around different kinds of energies.
his witnesses are very solidly in that similar area (aerospace engineers etc) and the information they give is fresh to me, hopefully to you too. this may provide a new slant on this particular discussion, as they decsribe finding board marks in many of the most complex formations..
