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. contributed by Jerry W. Decker February 4th, 1990
