Y'all tryin' to corn-fuse the aliens what do crop circles by making the
crops circlear?

Any reports of mysterious crop squares out that way?

Oh, and from space, you can really see where the water distribution
stops and the dry ground begins! Wow.

if i were an alien, i'd do something smart, like a 3d shape instead of a
mere circle or square.

Yes, if i could pick the shape it would be a dodecahedron.

I was thinking the other day that those weird shapes on the ground aren't
landing zones, but the places where they bury the vehicle detector antenna
for interstellar traffic intersections. (Ever notice the odd circle cuts in
the road at an intersection? That's a buried antenna for sensing cars.)

You cityfolk. Basically the situation on that is they have a watering
system setup, like sprinkers, and they rotate in a circle around a fixed
point. Uses alot less water than standard style irrigation.

I can see how the circular crops would be more water efficient. But a
full 18-hole golf course!?

Seems with water at a premium that a golf course would just be flat out
impracticle. But then, I've never met someone with the golfing bug that
I would affix the epithet "practicle" to. I wonder what membership dues
are like at that club?

Hehehe, I don't think I'd want to be a farmer who's crop of concentric
circles looks suspiciously like a bombing target on the western edge of
a military target range. :)

I have looked at Area 51 with the Google maps- it's
too cool for words.

Where is the airplane graveyard located, Adrian?

If you would, could you make a link for Area 51, I looked, but could
not find. And if you find the airplane graveyard, link it here, please?
:)

Thanks.

😀 See if you can find the big public course near the Civic center.

And the huge private one east of my house.
