I don't think it's all BS either. Apparently many of them are human-made--creating them has become sort of a hobby-cum-cult--but the origin of others is unclear. There's a great deal of material on the Web about them; it's not as if nobody's done any investigating. A lot of it is silly, IMHO, but there's also been some pretty hard scientific research that has identified very strange features--altered molecular structure in the plants, for example (features that are not found in circles that are known to be human-made). And it seems that they simply don't get made if anybody's watching. I don't think they're messages from the Space Brothers, but I really have no clue whatsoever what/ who might be creating the ones that don't seem to have been made by humans. Some of them are amazingly sophisticated mathematically. I agree with off_world; no matter what/who is responsible for them, they're beautiful. Many of them are real works of art. Even if they're all human- made, that such incredibly elaborate designs can be laid down overnight in complete secrecy is nothing short of remarkable. It's just a fascinating phenomenon, and it gets more compelling the more you look into it. We've had a good bit of discussion here before, if you want to check the archives. It does seem to make some people very nervous, judging from the near- hysterical tone of their skepticism.
