Electronic devices, such as compasses, watches, and cell phones have reportedly gone wonky at the sites, both on the ground and in the air, as researchers flew over the crop circles. Scientists have no explanation for these weird disturbances they call \u201cEM Field Distortions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cColin Andrews, a crop circle investigator recorded EM measurements that were ten times the radiation level of a normal field.\u201d Again, no explanation.<\/p>\n<p>Many eye-witnesses also reported hearing strange trilling noises that frightened them, like something out of a Star Trek episode. Sounds like the kind of <em>Tribble<\/em> that only Captain Kirk himself could handle. Anyone got a hotline or priceline to Shatner?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIn 1991, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley confessed they used simple tools to design many of the crop circles going back as far as 1978.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Then there are also the physical side effects many credible witnesses experienced after visiting a crop circle, such as: nausea, headaches, tingling and giddiness\u2014all symptoms one might have after a good dose of nitrous oxide. Might the aliens actually be a race of galactic dentists, making our world safe from gingivitis? These are just some of the questions that continue to <em>crop up<\/em>\u2014at least in my mind.<\/p>\n<p>In 1991, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley confessed they used simple tools to design many of the crop circles going back as far as 1978 and they publicly demonstrated their technique with only one hour\u2019s effort. Other crop artists claim they can make similar designs with nothing but a rope, a plank and an anchor. I\u2019m willing to bet MacGyver can do it with just a toothpick and dental floss.  <\/p>\n<p>Given our high tech advances of late, I\u2019d concede that perhaps the majority of crop formations in modern times are of human origin, but I still wrestle with that unexplained ancient runway in Peru, the <em>Nazca Plains<\/em>. Before aircraft was even invented, this intricate pattern of symbols that stretched out for miles and could only be seen from the sky, existed as a beacon for someone.  <\/p>\n<p>But for who?&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Maybe for that weird alien dude smoking the marijuana pipe. If so, he\u2019d better think twice before landing.
