"WILBUR, Wash. (CBS/KREM) -- A farming couple in Lincoln County discovered some strange crop circles in the middle of their wheat field. The crop circle is a good distance from any roadway. What made it, or who, or how it got formed, the farmers just don't know. Video description

Ok, some of the more super complex crop circles do baffle me, yet this one seems way too simple to be made by aliens. Sorry, but it looks more like an amateur enthusiast made this one. If crop circle making was an Olympic event this one would get a -73 out of a possible 10.

He's right ... they didn't appear in history.. they appeared one day out of the blue and a couple of guys admitted to making them, then suddenly they start "cropping" up all over right after? ... it's a copycat thing.. and there are even companies out there that do it professionally .. as well as many many groups who do it for the fun of it .. there's a group here near where I live that do it.. and they've gotten it down to a science, they can be in and out quickly
The only way it could be alien is if they were watching the first guys who did it and thought "Woah cool.. we should totally do this!"
It's an interesting form of graffiti though I don't care for it because it's destructive to crops.. it costs money for those farmersedit on 8/2/2012 by miniatus because: (no reason given)

Crop Circles have been reported since early in the 20th century, long before Doug and the other dude we're born.
Actually they have been reported since the 17th century:
www.world-mysteries.com...
"The most well known positive depiction of a crop circle is found in a woodcut made in 1678 with the title 'Strange News out of Hartford-shire’.
It depicts a devil-like creature cutting out a pattern in a crop with a scythe.
The woodcut has text, which told of a greedy farmer, who, having refused to pay a mower a reasonable rate for reaping his oats, swore that he would rather have the Devil do the work. The very following morning, the farmer awoke to find his crop had been harvested, but done so in such an amazing manner, with rounded circles of incredible exactness that no human could have done the same within the period and darkness of one night. The farmer was so afraid that he could not enter the field to collect his harvest".
No doubt some of these are man made, but many are of a complexity that it would be impossible for a team to accomplish in a few hours by conventional means.
And testing on the wheat stalks of some of these "circles" has had surprising results.
Aliens, Gaia, who knows?

Why would any crop circle news story not include a bird's eye view? Just the shots they show make it look pretty amateur. I'll bet from the air it is completely obvious it's man made.
