2 THE RURAL VOICE
FEEDBACK
INVESTIGATING
FORMATIONS
I am writing to you to request your
assistance, through your publication
(in perhaps an Editorial, article, or
letter to the Editor), in a continuing
scientific endeavor.
As I am sure you are aware, the
"Crop Circle" phenomenon — the
appearance of mysterious and still -
unexplained formations, mostly
circular, in crop fields — has been in-
creasing in intensity in recent years,
both in quantity and complexity of
formations.
Although the greatest number of
reports still come from southern
England, many other countries,
especially Canada, are now producing
large number of reports. In 1990,
Canada produced more than 30 reports
of this type and, as in England, the
patterns are becoming more complex
as time goes on. Multiple circles,
circles with rings, partial rings, and
complex swirl patterns have all been
recorded.
In our investigations last year,
we learned many farmers had disco-
vered similar effects in their fields
over the years, but never reported
them because they weren't aware
anyone was interested. We are most
definitely interested in receiving these
reports.
We are doing extensive scientific
investigation and analysis of these
crop field effects, and would very
much like to receive reports from
individuals who have discovered or
have knowledge of any such crop
circles anywhere in Canada. This is
most important, as we maintain close
contacts with all the major research
organizations worldwide in order to
exchange ideas and data. In this way,
we may eventually be able to discover
