This somehow reminds me of the movie I rented last night, The Forgotten. Has anyone seen it? The entire beginning of the movie, I thought it was some governemt conspiracy.

As to the threads, I still don't understand how any of the crop circles can be man made..especially in someones back yard and not be noticed.

because those "backyards" are absolutly huge and usually has at least 3 roads right against it

Well...they're usually in huge fields rather than backyards. Some man-made ones are really great...but they take a hell of a lot of time and precision. I don't care how well you plan out your design, it's always hard for a person to make a perfect circle without some sort of mechanical aid.

That's what I'm saying..everything is so perfect, down to the last mm. However, I was notioning at the fact that there have been some crop circle in some peoples' back yards..which were fields.

ummm, maybe you haven't heard of Heron Of Alexandria then. he invented the steam engine hundred of years before it was reinvented in mind 1800's. he just never made the connection between the engine and what it was supposed to do, so he just used it as a recreational toy. also he kinda dicovered the first computer and also made some mechanical clocks that would rival with most of today's atomic clocks. Also some of his mechanical devices are still buffling engineers nowadays. think about what would have happened if he actually used his inventions more than 2000 years ago.
