- CIRCLES OF CONFUSION
-
- THIS ARTICLE ABOUT ENGLAND CROPS WAS TAKEN FROM
- THE DETROIT NEWS ON OCTOBER 2, 1989
- By Timothy Harper
-
- ROUND AND ROUND THEY GO
- NEW CROP OF ODDITIES HAS BRITISH GOING IN CIRCLES.
-
- A rare set of concentric rings lies quietly awaiting the answer
- of why - and how - English crops are being sculpted. Some of the
- circular depressions measure up to 100 feet in diameter, and they
- have been cropping up in southern England since 1976.
-
- LONDON - Behind the hedgerows and stone fences of rural Britain
- lurks the Mystery of the Field Circles.
-
- The puzzle over the circles - large round areas where maturing
- crops have been partly flattened and entangled - is something of a
- modern-day Stonehenge riddle for the millions of Britons who have
- been reading about them all summer.
-
- Amid local media reports of newly appeared circles, many
- Britons have taken to making Sunday drives in the country to see the
- mystery for themselves. Even the international press has become
- interested.
-
- Pat Delgado, a retired British electrical engineer who has
- written a book about the circles, said they can be up to 100 feet in
- diameter. He has reports of circles being noted as early as the
- early 1950s, but said the number has increased dramatically this
- decade.
-
- "Last year there were 98 altogether," he said. "This year there
- have been 240."
-
- The circles, which appear overnight and are sometimes in
- clusters, have been found in fields of oats, barley, corn, wheat,
- rye, beans, spinach and other crops. Typically, the plants are all
- bent in the same direction, sometimes with their stems, branches and
- leaves interwoven in intricate symmetry.
-
- "These crops are not damaged in any way," Delgado said.
- "They are laid down and continue to grow and ripen in a horizontal
- field."
-
- Delgado said that for years the circles seemed to be confined
- largely to fields on three counties in southern England, including
- Wiltshire, the home of the Stonehenge standing rocks that some
- theories connect with ancient visitors form outer space.
-
- This summer, however, the circles have appeared in many more
- counties throughout England.
-
- Delgado said he doesn't subscribe to any "little green men"
- theories, but he doesn't have any better ideas, either.
-
- "I'm as mystified as when I started investigating nine years
- ago," he said. "The only progress we've made is by elimination. We
- have eliminated whirlwinds and hoaxes. We have eliminated crop over-
- fertilization and the wind vortices theory and animal intervention."
-
- One farmer, Geoff Cooper, called a nearby British military base
- to complain after finding circles in his fields this summer.
-
- "We thought their helicopters were doing it on exercises," he
- said. "But they sent an expert round and he said a helicopter could
- only make that shape if it was flying upside down and stationary."
-
- Cooper said one neighbor believes the circles are caused by
- hedgehogs rolling over and over in the fields, but he calculated
- that it would take 40,000 of them to make the circles in his field
- in one night.
-
- Some newspapers during the summer reported that the British
- Ministry of Defense was investigation the circles, but the ministry
- denies it.
-
- Delgado, who worked for the British Weapons Research
- Establishment and NASA on missile-tracking systems before retiring,
- wrote his book, `Circular Evidence', with Colin Andrews, another
- electrical engineer.
-
- They got involved when a fellow engineer asked them to look at
- some circles found in a field near his home. Delgado bristle at the
- suggestion that he might be regarded as a crackpot for spending time
- investigating the circles. The fact remains, he says, that the
- circles exist, and no one has explained them.

-
- Additional information obtained from
- the January 31st, 1990 airing of Unsolved Mysteries
-
- Of particular interest are two points, the first involves the
- focus of the circles in a general triangle around Stonehenge with
- a majority of the others being proximal to other menhirs or
- megalithic structures.
-
- The second is by far the most interesting especially when
- considered in conjunction with our DNAMAST file. It showed a view
- of the base a wheat stalk which was bent as if the stalk had been
- melted in one area, folded over and allowed to cool. DNA, a complex
- molecular structure present in all tissues, can be "melted" in a
- process known as "denaturation". This causes the hydrogen bonds
- which hold the "stair steps" to the "rails" of a double helix.
-
- When the bonds are disturbed, usually by heating at temperatures
- beginning at about 70 degrees Centigrade, the rails break up. If
- the structure is allowed to cool before complete separation of the
- rails is achieved, in many instances the stair steps will re-form
- in the identical pattern as before.
-
- Bearing this is mind, we can see that some form of energy was
- produced in the immediate vicinity of the wheat stalks which would
- bring about an energetic state similar to that produced by heating.
-
- This could possible have been an anti-gravity force which we
- of Vangard believe can be beneficially used on living organisms as
- witnessed by the many UFO contact reports where the craft occupants
- indicate they are of extreme age (1000 + years) yet look in the
- early 20's or 30's. When asked how this is achieved, the reply
- indicates that the aging process is suspended or greatly retarded
- when the under the impress of the ship's anti-gravity field.
-
- However, should the occupant of the craft remain away from the
- ship field too long, the aging process would resume, yet could be
- again halted if once again brought within the field of the ship.
-
- See the Plenum newsletter for articles on the rejuvenation
- process from a Vangard Sciences point of view. There appears to be
- a relationship between counter-clockwise spin, cold, north pole
- energy and specific wave patterns. More on this later.
